1. PRONOUNS

28. PREPOSITIONAL PRONOUNS

35. REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS Reflexive pronouns in Spanish are closely related to direct and indirect pronouns, by following the same rules of word order and using almost same pronouns. .

38. It is also common to use the reflexive form when performing some action on a part of the body. - secarse el cabello (to dry one's hair) - lavarse las manos (to wash one's hands.) Note that for many of these verbs it is not necessary to translate the reflexive pronoun into English. - Se acostó a las nueve (She went to bed at 9.) - Me siento triste ( I feel sad)

39. But with many verbs, especially those that are less frequently used in the reflexive, the pronoun must be translated. - ¿Te ves en el espejo? ( Do you see yourself in the mirror?) And in still other cases, you can translate with or without translating the pronoun. - Se vistió en su coche ( He got dressed in his car, or He dressed himself in his car).

40. INDEFINITE PRONOUNS In Spanish as in English, most of the words used as indefinite pronouns sometimes they function as other parts of speech, often as adjectives and sometimes as adverbs. In Spanish, some of the indefinite pronouns exist in both masculine and feminine forms as well as singular and plural forms, so they must agree with the nouns they refer to. Here is a list of the most common Spanish indefinite pronouns:

44. RELATIVE PRONOUNS

52. Neuter relative pronouns: lo que and lo cual ( which , what ).

54. Other relatives: cuando ( when ), donde ( where ), etc

55. INTERROGATIVE PRONOUNS Interrogative pronouns are quién , qué , cuál , and cuánto . A pronoun is a word that replaces a noun, and interrogative means questioning, so interrogative pronouns are pronouns used to ask the questions like who, what, which, and how much/many . Following are the interrogative pronouns in Spanish:

57. DEMOSTRATIVE PRONOUNS Éste (This) - Ese ( That) - Aquel ( That one over there).

60. INDIRECT OBJECT PRONOUNS Indirect object pronouns are words that replace the indirect object, which is usually a person. Notice that in Spanish, an indirect object pronoun is joined to the verb by a. A sentence with an Indirect object noun usually includes the indirect object pronoun le or les. EXAMPLE: Le dio la comida a ella (He gave the food to her)

61. The Spanish indirect object pronouns are as follows:

62. Like direct object pronouns, Spanish indirect object pronouns are placed in front of the verb. Te hablo de él. (I'm telling you about him.) Les canta . (She sings to them) Os prestamos nuestro coche . (We lend you people our car) Él nos preguntó . (He asked us) Pronouns can get attached to the end in the case of infinitives, present participles, and affirmative commands: Le voy a preguntar ( or ) Voy a preguntar le ( I'm going to tell him.) Les quiero enviar una tarjeta (or) Quiero enviar les una tarjeta (I want to send them a letter.)

63. The a can be added to these sentences in order to clarify, contrast, or emphasized the indirect object pronoun. Example: A mí me gusta el verde pero a él le gusta el azul y a ella le gusta el rojo (I like the green one, but he likes the blue one and she likes the red one.) With other verbs, when referring to articles of clothing or parts of the body, the indirect object functions much like a possessive in English. Su madre le quitó el impermeable . ( His mother helped him to remove his raincoat) Te lavarán el pelo en la peluquería . ( They will wash your hair at the hairdresser’s.)

64. Special verbs with indirect object pronouns There are a few special verbs that work in conjunction with an indirect object pronoun to create an idiomatic expression that is quite common in Spanish as well as its English equivalent. Me gusta la pizza (I like pizza) Te gustan los libros ( You like books) Nos gusta la música ( We like music) Le gusta bailar ( She likes dancing) Special Verbs with Indirect Object Pronouns
