Give me it. (or give it to me).

It is the familiar, singular command of dar with the object pronouns me and lo attached to it.

It is spelled dámelo.

Whether this is considered a Spanish sentence or a word is an interesting question.

It's an imperative sentence, and also a compound word, I believe. - mikeburnfire, Jun 10, 2010

My Spanish teacher told it was a command phrase, da (some form of dar, can't remember the name)-me (me)- lo (it)

It can be used when ordering: Dámelo un helado de fresa, por favor, or Quiero un helado de fresa.

I don't think one would say 'Dámelo un helado de fresa' but rather 'Dame un helado de fresa' since the pronoun 'lo' would take the place of 'un helado' - sinsonte, Jun 2, 2012
Thanks for correcting me. Your right! - Em, Jun 6, 2012

It certainly is a word!

Damelo is kind of like 3 words made into 1. Da means "give" in a commanding tone. me is an indirect object pronoun and means "me" Lo is a direct object pronoun and means "it"

Altogether it says: Give it to me.

It's also the name of a Juanes song.
