Direct Object Pronouns
What are these things you callDirect object pronouns?
The object that directly receives the action of the verb is called the direct object. The direct object answers the question "what?" or "whom?“ “We see the statue.” answers the question, “What do you see?”.
Object pronouns are great because they save us time.They are the replacement words we use to shorten our sentences when we are referring to something we have previously mentioned.
“We see the statue.” can be shortened to “We see it.” after it has been established what you are looking at, so you don’t have to keep saying, “the statue”.
We see the statue.We like the statue.
Compare:
We see it.We like it.vs.
Where do direct object pronouns go in the sentence?
In English, pronouns come after the verb : I’m reading a text message. I’m reading it.
Pronouns go before the verb, so… La rana mira el perro La rana lo mira
