In this example, the indirect object answers this question: ¿A quién le prestó Roberto cien pesos? To whom did Roberto loan 100 pesos? Spanish speakers often use the object pronoun and the noun to which it refers in the same sentence to emphasize or clarify to whom the pronoun refers. The indirect object pronoun is often used without the indirect object noun when the person for whom the action is being done is known. Iván le prestó un lápiz a Juan . También le prestó papel. Iván loaned a pencil to Juan. He also loaned him paper. Sabrina le compró un café a Valeria . También le compró un sándwich. Sabrina bought Valeria a coffee. She also bought her a sandwich. ¡ojo! Since le and les have multiple meanings, a + [ noun ] or a + [ pronoun ] is often used to clarify to whom the pronouns refer. Ella les vendió ropa. Ella les vendió ropa a ellos . She sold clothing (to them or to you all). She sold clothing to them. Yo le presté una camisa. Yo le presté una camisa a Luis . I loaned a shirt (to you or to him or to her). I loaned a shirt to Luis. 154 ciento cincuenta y cuatro Unclear Clearer Indirect object pronouns me (to, for) me nos (to, for) us te (to, for) you (fam.) os (to, for) you (fam.) le (to, for) you (form.); les (to, for) you; (to, for) him; (to, for) her (to, for) them Singular forms Plural forms Te vendo las gafas en veinticinco.
