What’s a direct object vs indirect object in Spanish?

In Spanish, a direct object is a noun or pronoun that receives the action of a verb. It usually explains “what?” or “whom?”

An indirect object is indirectly affected by the action, often as a recipient. It usually explains “to whom?” or “for whom?”

Take the sentence “Damos un regalo a Juan” [“We give a gift to Juan”]. What do we give? A gift. To whom do we give it? To Juan.

Indirect object pronouns differ from direct object pronouns in Spanish in the third person forms; instead of “lo/la” and “los,” use “le” and “les.

What is a direct object in Spanish?

A direct object in Spanish is the same as a direct object in English: a noun or pronoun that receives the action of a verb.

For example, take the sentence “Raquel escribe una carta,” or “Raquel writes a letter.” “Carta” is the direct object because it receives the action of “escribe” from Raquel.

Like in English, the direct object pronouns in Spanish are different from the subject pronouns. They are “me,” “te,” “lo,” “la,” “nos,” “os,” “los,” and “las.”
