    Study Notes

    Direct Object Pronouns

    • Revisited the memory palace for direct object pronouns: la on the left, lo on the right, te in front, and me at the bottom.
    • Introduced the word "nos" for "us" as a direct object (e.g., "ellas nos encontraron" means "they found us").

    Indirect Object Pronouns

    • Introduced a new scene with indirect object pronouns: le on the left, le on the right, te in front, and me and nos at the bottom.
    • Indirect object pronouns are used when the action is performed for or to someone/something (e.g., "I gave him a book").
    • Indirect objects are the recipients of the action in a sentence.
    • If "him" can be turned into "to him" or "for him" in a sentence, use the indirect object pronoun "le" instead of the direct object pronoun "lo".

    Key Points

    • Direct object pronouns are used when the action is performed directly to someone/something (e.g., "they found him").
    • Direct objects are the things/actions that receive the action in a sentence.
    • Indirect object pronouns are used in situations where the action is performed for or to someone/something, making them the recipients of the action.
