They go after the verb: She threw it. She didn’t call me. She threw it to me. She didn’t send it to me. Where do pronouns go in a sentence in Spanish? They go right before the verb: Ella la echó. Ella no me llamó. Ella me la echó. Ella no me lo mandó. Indirect object pronouns go before direct object pronouns. (Just like the diagrams!) Extra Information: 1. Pronouns can get attached to the end of verbs that aren’t conjugated OR that are in the present participle form (-ando, -iendo): Ella quiere comprarlo. She wants to buy it. 2. Pronouns get attached to the end of affirmative commands: ¡Dámelo! Give it to me! ¡Échamela!
