 Impersonal “se”: You can use the pronoun se in order to avoid specifying the person who is doing the action of the verb.  If an infinitive or a singular noun follows the verb, you use the 3 rd person singular form of the verb.  If a plural noun follows the verb, you use 3 rd person plural form of the verb. Se habla español aquí. Se venden zapatos.

 In Spanish, the placement of object pronouns depends on whether a command is affirmative or negative.  In affirmative commands you attach object pronouns to the end of the verb.  In the negative commands, they go before the verb and after no.

 When you attach the pronoun you must add an accent to the second syllable counting from the end and not including the pronoun.  Explícalo Ex plí calo  PonlaNO ACCENT –only 2 syllables  LávateLávate
