section 3: use direct and indirect object pronouns to rewrite the sentences without changing their meaning. (8 x 3 pts. each = 24 pts.) 11 mi hermana prepara la comida a nosotros. 12 tú le das las flores a julieta. 13 nosotros vamos a comprar un regalo a marta en el centro comercial. 14 ernesto manda el paquete a su amigo. 15 yo les doy un consejo a los chicos. 16 yo compro una camiseta nueva para ti. 17 mi abuela cuenta historias a los niños. 18 luis y yo le damos la respuesta correcta a la profesora.

Explanation:

In Spanish, direct - object pronouns replace the direct object (what or whom the action is directly done to) and indirect - object pronouns replace the indirect object (to/for whom the action is done). We identify the direct and indirect objects in each sentence and substitute them with appropriate pronouns.

1. Mi hermana nos la prepara. (The direct object "la comida" is replaced with "la" and the indirect object "a nosotros" with "nos")
2. Tú se las das. (The direct object "las flores" is "las" and the indirect object "a Julieta" is "le", which changes to "se" before "las")
3. Nosotros le lo vamos a comprar. (The direct object "un regalo" is "lo" and the indirect object "a Marta" is "le")
4. Ernesto se lo manda. (The direct object "el paquete" is "lo" and the indirect object "a su amigo" is "le", which changes to "se" before "lo")
5. Yo se lo doy. (The direct object "un consejo" is "lo" and the indirect object "a los chicos" is "les", which changes to "se" before "lo")
6. Yo te la compro. (The direct object "una camiseta nueva" is "la" and the indirect object "para ti" is "te")
7. Mi abuela se las cuenta. (The direct object "historias" is "las" and the indirect object "a los niños" is "les", which changes to "se" before "las")
8. Luis y yo se la damos. (The direct object "la respuesta correcta" is "la" and the indirect object "a la profesora" is "le", which changes to "se" before "la")
