Spanish Level 2 • To identify the indirect object, you must answer these questions: -To whom? or For whom? the action of the verb is performed The indirect object also tells us where the direct object is going. 1) Robert bought me lunch. --The indirect object is “me”. For whom did Robert buy lunch? For me. 2) I gave the basketball to John. --The indirect object is John. The direct object is going to John. 3) John gave the book to Michael. --The indirect object is Michael. To whom is the book going? To Michael. Like English, the Spanish indirect object is identified the same way. -Juan da el libro a Jorge. The indirect object for this is Jorge. The book is going to Jorge. -Julio compro un regalo para Marísol. The indirect object for this is Marísol. The book is going to Marísol. • In English we can use pronouns to take place of the noun. The pronoun goes after the verb. - Sarah gave the book to him. “Him” takes place of the person receiving the book. In Spanish we can use pronouns also to replace the indirect object. The pronouns go before the verb. - Miguel te da el libro. “Te” takes place of “you” which is the person receiving the book.
