Lo, los, las, ect.

Question

Do you know what lo, los, la, las, le and les means? And what is the difference between them'

Answer 1

Sargento Chinicuil said:

"LO" only applies for things.

I disagree.

He visto a tu hermano - Lo he visto.

Answer 2

Hola!
The Lo,Los,La,Las are Plural froms of The .Lo, Los [ male] La ,Las [female] Gender and amount are the factors that give you the need for wich should be used

Answer 3

Sargento,

plural, not plurar

I wouldn't bring it up, but I've seen you use it before.

Answer 4

For people you respect, instead of use "TE" (¿TE gustaría ir al parque? - Would YOU like to go to the park'), you use "LE" (¿LE gustaría ir al parque? - Would YOU like to go to the park') to show respect. This is only for singular YOU.

For plurar, is the same, is always "LES" (¿LES gustaría ir al parque? - Would YOU like to go to the park')

And something that lazarus1907 forgot, "LOS" applies for things & people (masculine) as well. "LO" only applies for things. For people (masculine) in singular we say "EL". "LA" & "LAS" is used for things & people (femenine) as well. It's very confused now that I realized the way we used them, I didn't realized that before. I hope I explained myself clearly, any doubt I'll be pleased to answer you.

Answer 5

Lazurus seems to have missed the le, les

I'll let you read the rules, but all his examples were pronouns used as a direct object of the verb.
The le, les are particular forms of pronouns used as an indirect objects of the verb..

See the grammar references on pronouns.

Answer 6

Your question requires a very long answer. I'll give you a short one:

for masculine singular objects:

Tengo un libro (I have a book)
Lo tengo (I have it)

for feminine singular objects:

Tengo una casa (I have a house)
La tengo (I have it)

for masculine plural objects:

Tengo unos libros (I have some books)
Los tengo (I have them)

for feminine singular objects:

Tengo unas casas (I have some houses)
Las tengo (I have them)

You'are probably wondering why we change from "lo" to "la" if in English is always "it", and why we change from "los" to "las", if in English is always "them". Well... many languages (probably over 50% of the planet) don't bother changing from "it" to "them" anyway (they don't change anything), and they communicate perfectly, so there you go.
