what are double object pronouns?
Whats the definition of a double object pronoun?
3 Answers
When you have both an indirect object pronoun and a direct object pronoun, you have a double object pronoun. The indirect object always comes first.
¡Dámelo! Give it to me!
Quiero llevártelo. I want to take it to you.
When the indirect and direct object both begin with "l", the indirect object becomes "se".
Quiero traérselo. I want to bring it to him.
I gave examples using a command and infinitive, where the objects come after te verb. But lacking an imperative, infinitive or gerund, the objects precede the verb, as shown in the above reference.
Buena suerte,

A double object pronoun is when a direct object and indirect object are used together in the same sentence.
