Indirect Object Pronouns

Indirect object (complemento indireto)

The indirect object is the who upon which the verb “indirectly” acts.

For example:

  • 📖 Eu dei um livro à Ana. (I gave a book to Ana.) If we ask the question “To whom was the book given?” the answer would be “à Ana” (to Ana), so Ana would be the indirect object of the verb.

The rest of this lesson is for Plus members

Me, te, lhe, nos, vos, lhes. Portuguese indirect object pronouns, when they follow the verb with a hyphen and when they move in front of it instead.
