In English object pronouns follow the verb (have the function of complement) or following the preposition and the complement.
. Mc Cain loves her
. Every day Lola comes to the tv studio with him
Some verbs are followed both direct and indirect object: In that case you will have two possible constructions:
I bring her an apple every day. verbo+obj ind+obj dir
I bring an apple to her every day. verbo+ obj dir +obj ind
Pronombres objetivos
En inglés los pronombres objetivos siguen al verbo (tienen la función de complementarlo) o siguen a la preposición y también la complementan.
. Mc Cain loves her (Mc Cain la ama)
. Every day Lola comes to the tv studio with him (Cada día Lola viene al estudio de tv con él)
A veces los verbos son seguidos tanto de objeto directo como indirecto: En ese caso tendrás dos posibles construcciones:
I bring her an apple every day. (Le traigo (a ella) una manzana cada día). verbo+obj ind+obj dir
I bring an apple to her every day. (Le traigo una manzana (a ella) cada día. verbo+ obj dir +obj ind
Los pronombres objetivos en inglés, también conocidos como pronombres personales complemento, son:
