Direct object pronouns
Direct object pronouns have the same gender
(masculine or feminine) and number (singular

come right before the conjugated verb.

devolví.

The written accent
You already know the standard rules for
stress and accent in Spanish.
• When words end in a vowel, n, or s, the
stress is on the next-to-last syllable.
• When words end in a consonant (except
n or s), the stress is on the last syllable.
• Words that do not follow these patterns
must have a written accent (called acento
ortográfico or tilde). The accent indicates
that you should place the stress on this
syllable as you pronounce the word.
The written accent
Listen to and say these examples:
champú olvidó cómodo médico
película patín jabón
adiós

The written accent
¡Compruébalo! Here are some new words
that all require accent marks. Copy the
words and, as you hear them pronounced,
write the accent mark over the correct
vowel.
