11. DOPs AND IOPs TOGETHER!! Many times direct and indirect pronouns are used together. Just remember: Indirect before direct, reflexive 1 st of all! *All other rules apply.

12. DOP AND IOP I gave them to you. What did I give?Them (los) Who received?You (te) Use the rules & remember indirect before direct. Yo te los di. (i) (d)

13. BUT...... It’s not always as easy as it seems…….. NEVER use a double “L” le los, le las, le lo, le la, les los, les las, etc… INSTEAD change the first le or les (the IOP) to ‘SE’ then follow with the appropriate lo, la, los, las (DOP) Don’t forget the specify when needed.

14. I gave them to her. Yo se los di. (a ella) She gave it to them. Ella se lo dio. (a ellos).

15. Using Reflexives too?? It’s just this simple…. Indirect before direct, reflexive first of all!! However you’ll probably never use all 3 in one sentence. Most commonly, Indirect –Direct or Reflexive – Direct
