Object Pronouns Commands in Spanish

How Do You Use Object Pronouns with Commands in Spanish?

Learn how to use the object pronouns with commands in Spanish. With all affirmative commands, the object pronouns are attached directly to the end of the imperative form of the verb. e.g. Hable usted del caso – Talk about the case Háblelo usted – Talk about the case Coma usted el emparedado – Eat the sandwich Cómalo usted – Eat the sandwich Escriba usted el libro – Write the book Escríbalo usted – Write the book Note: If both direct and indirect object pronouns are attached, the indirect object pronoun comes before the direct object pronoun. Háblelo usted – Talk about it Háblemelo usted – Tell me you Cómalo usted – Eat it Cómaselo usted – Eat it yourself Escríbalo usted – Write it Escríbaselo usted – Write it to you Note: In order to maintain the original stress of the verb, a written accent is often needed. If the command has more than one syllable, a written accent is required when one or more pronoun is added.

Command: mire (two syllables)

mírelos míremelos Note: If the command has only one syllable, a written accent is only necessary when two pronouns are added. Command: haz (one syllable) hazlo (one pronoun, no accent required) házmelo (two pronouns, accent is required) These rules for accentuation apply to all affirmative imperative forms. With all negative commands, the object pronouns come before the imperative form of the verb. e.g. No hable usted del caso – Do not talk about the case No lo hable usted – Do not talk about the case No coma usted el emparedado – Do not eat the sandwich No lo coma usted – Do not eat the sandwich No escriba usted el libro – Do not write the book No lo escriba usted – Do not write the book Note: If there are both direct and indirect object pronouns, the indirect object pronoun comes before the direct object pronoun. e.g. No se lo hable usted – Do not tell her No se lo coma usted – Do not eat this yourself No me lo escriba usted – Do not write it to me Read more about the Spanish grammar
