¡Este es una pregunta enorme! Recomiendo que tú mires y leas estas lecciones:


This is a huge question! I recommend that you watch and read these lessons:

Lesson 2.3 Lessons with Direct and Indirect Object Pronouns

Lesson 2.5 Reflexive Verbs and the Morning Routine

Spanish Grammar Reference Articles (Look at the articles listed under "Pronouns")

Wow -- this question will fill a chapter of your textbook.

First there are subject pronouns: yo, tú, él, ella, usted, nosotros (-as), vosotros (-as), ellos, ellas, and ustedes

Then there are the direct object pronouns: me, te, lo, la, nos, os, los, las

Then there are reflexive pronouns: me, te, se, nos, os, se

And this is just a start. So, grab any first year Spanish book, and start doing those exercises!!

Look at the section of links on Pronouns, on the Grammar page.

Spanish pronouns don't work by themselves, and you can't presume to learn them as a topic. They fit into the broader scheme of Spanish language syntax.

I would recommend you learn Spanish by degrees, given the topics and learning videos on this site (Learn Spanish). Pronouns will be introduced at various times in appropriate ways. You will then learn when and how to use them correctly.

Once you've completed all the video lessons, you will have seen all the pronouns used in pretty much all the ways they are used. You can then review them all, if that's something you still think is valuable, and they will make a lot more sense that way.

¡Buena suerte!

Hola statum. You have every right to be confused! I can tell you that I'm in the same boat smile.

Spanish pronouns and their uses are very different than in English. The previous answers will get you started on your way, but it will take considerable effort on your part to learn these lessons. You can also do a search of archived Answers - there are many previous questions on the subject. Use every resource available, be patient and diligent, and come back and post if you have specific questions. ¡Buena suerte y bienvenido al foro!
