I eat the tamales.

I eat them.

Yo los como. (I eat them)

Now let’s see how pronouns replace things or people that are direct

objects.

In English the direct object pronoun is placed after the verb. In Spanish it is usually put before the conjugated verb.

Page 33: Direct Object Pronouns P. 3. Direct object pronouns allow us to avoid repetition of nouns!

Yo como los tamales. (I eat the tamales)

Yo los como. (I eat them)

You conjugate the verb for the subject, which is the person/ thing doing the

action.

Page 34: Direct Object Pronouns P. 3. Direct object pronouns allow us to avoid repetition of nouns!

DOP placementIf you have 1 verb in a sentence, you have 1 option. The direct object pronoun can be placed in front of theconjugated verb.

Ex: Como la pizza. (I eat the pizza)

como. (I eat it)la(1 verb)

Page 35: Direct Object Pronouns P. 3. Direct object pronouns allow us to avoid repetition of nouns!

DOP placementIf you have 2 verbs in a sentence, you have 2 options. The direct object pronoun can either go in front of theconjugated verb or it can be attached to the infinitive.

Ex: Quiero comer la pizza. (I want to eat the pizza)

la quiero comer. (I want to eat it.) (1st verb) (2nd verb)

or

quiero comerla(1st verb) (2nd verb)
