Grammar Point: object pronouns

Object pronouns (e.g.: "me", "it", "him", etc. in English) come BEFORE the verb in Spanish. For example, "David sees her" = David la ve; "Laura wants it" = Laura lo quiere. Consult our Grammar Guide to learn more about direct object pronouns, indirect object pronouns and the order of pronouns.
