1. Direct and Indirect Object Pronouns Combined Traje el bronceador. ¿Me lo puedes aplicar? (Los pronombres de complemento directo e indirecto usados juntos)

2. As with all object pronouns, double object pronouns are placed before a conjugated verb, and the indirect object pronoun (IOP) Spanish direct and indirect object pronouns may be used together in the same sentence just as in English. As with most all pronoun use, the objective is to reduce the length, complexity, or redundancy of the language. Julián, ¿me traes la película? Julián, will you bring me the movie? Te la traigo en un momento. I’ll bring it to you in a moment. IOP DOP precedes the direct object pronoun (DOP).

3. We also may place the pronouns after an infinitive or gerund, but both pronouns must remain adjacent to each other, that is, both pronouns must come either in front of the conjugated verb or after the infinitive or gerund. Julián, ¿me traes la película? Te la voy a traer en un momento. Voy a traértela en un momento. Te la estoy trayendo ahora mismo. Estoy trayéndotela ahora mismo. Notice that when the pronouns are placed after the infinitive or gerund, they are closed up to each other and to the verb. Note also the written accents that must be added.
