Pronouns and referenceSpanishA2

Indirect object pronouns

Me, te, le, nos, os, and les often mark the person who receives, benefits from, or is affected by an action.

Examples

SpanishTranslation
Le escribo a mi hermana cada semana.

I write to my sister every week.

Nos dieron una mesa junto a la ventana.

They gave us a table next to the window.

¿Te puedo hacer una pregunta?

Can I ask you a question?

Pattern

indirect object pronoun + verb

How it works

Me, te, le, nos, os, and les often mark the person who receives, benefits from, or is affected by an action. This pattern typically appears as indirect object pronoun + verb and becomes easier when you meet it again in short, readable examples.

What to notice

  • The indirect object pronoun usually comes before a conjugated verb.
  • It points to the receiver or affected person, not the direct thing.

Why it matters

Reduce repetition and keep a conversation moving.

Use in context

This is a key A2 topic because Spanish starts to rely on these short pronouns constantly in natural speech.
