DOP are placed either
before a conjugated verb
or attached to the end of
an infinitive.
Before the Conjugated Verb:
-¿Cuándo compraste la falda?
-La compré ayer.
-¿Isabel, pagaste mi suéter?
-No, no lo pagué.
-¿Compraste los pantalones?
-No, no los compré.
Before the verb or after the infinitive
when you have 2 verbs back to back:
Before the verb:
-¿Quieres comprar la falda?
-Sí, la quiero comprar.
After the infinitive:
-¿Quieres comprar la falda?
-Si, quiero comprarla.
•When the pronoun replaces
both a masculine and a feminine
dircect object noun, we use los.
