Mandatos y Complementos Directos
Complementos directos can be placed:A. In front of a conjugated verbB. Attached to the end of an infinitive verbC. Attached to the end of a present participle (¡TILDE!)D.Attached to the end of an affirmative command*
(¡TILDE!)
*Importante* When adding a pronoun to the end of a command, we often have to add an accent mark to make sure the original pronunciation of the verb stays the same.
Ejemplo: Step 1: Identify the direct object.¡Laura, limpia tu dormitorio!
sujeto: Laura verbo: limpiaStep 2: Ask the two direct object identifier
questions.Laura, clean who? No, I’m not commanding Laura to clean
anyone!Laura, clean what? Your room!
Thus, “your room” is direct object of the sentence.Step 3: Decide which pronoun to replace it with.
tu dormitorio = singular/masculino = loStep 4: Eliminate the direct object from the original
sentence and place the direct object pronoun in the appropriate
location.Laura, limpialo.
Step 5: Add an accent mark if necessary. Cover up the pronoun with
your finger. Count back two syllables and add the accent mark.
Laura, límpialo.
*For Auditory Learners* Another way to think about the accent mark placement is keeping the stress in the original place. If you have good pronunciation, you don’t need to count syllables. Cover up the pronoun with your finger, pronounce the verb, and place the accent mark where you hear the stress.
*No accent mark necessary* If you cover up the pronoun that you added and count back two syllables, but the command doesn’t have two
syllables, you don’t need to add an accent mark! Ejemplo: ¡Hazlo!, ¡Ponlo en la mesa!
