Download Direct Object Pronouns The Direct Object

*
* In English the direct object is an object that
receives the direct action from the verb
* Ex: I wash the table.
* In this sentence your direct object is the
table, it receives the action of the verb, the
table is what it being cleaned by me.
* Now you have to replace the direct object (the
table) with a direct object pronoun (it)
* The sentence now looks like this: I wash it.
*
* A direct object pronoun prevents us from
continuously repeating the direct object
* Ex: I wash the table. I set the table and eat at
the table.
* A direct object pronoun turns the sentence into
I wash the table. I set it and eat at it.

* Yo lavo la mesa
* The direct object is the table so we insert a
direct object pronoun in place of la mesa.
* We use la as the object pronoun because la
mesa is feminine and singular
* You must place the direct object pronoun in
front of the active conjugated verb
* The sentence should now look like this: Yo la
lavo.
*
* When you have two verbs you can always put it
directly in front of the conjugated
Ex: Yo lo voy a limpiar
* However, now that you have two verbs you
have two different options
* You can attach the pronoun to the end of an
infinitive or a present participle
Ex: Yo voy a limpiarlo
*
* Change the direct object with the correct
direct object pronoun with the correct
placement.
