The answer is YES and when these words are an indirect-object pronoun, these words are either STATED or UNDERSTOOD: to, for, at, from
ex: I gave him the book. This can be restated to say: I gave the book TO him.

Yes, those are the appropriate indirect object pronouns in Spanish. To use the correct pronoun, you need to determine the indirect object in the sentence, which answers the question "to/for whom?" or "to/for what?".
Here's how you can use the correct indirect object pronoun:
1. "me" is used when the indirect object refers to "me" (to/for me).
2. "te" is used when the indirect object refers to "you" (to/for you, singular informal).
3. "le" is used when the indirect object refers to "him/her/you/formal" (to/for him/her/you).
4. "nos" is used when the indirect object refers to "us" (to/for us).
5. "os" is used when the indirect object refers to "you all" (to/for you all, plural informal).
6. "les" is used when the indirect object refers to "them/you all/formal" (to/for them/you all).
Remember to place the indirect object pronoun before the verb in most cases. However, if the verb is in the infinitive form or the present participle (-ando/-iendo), you can attach the pronoun to the end of the verb.
Practice:
- Juan me dio un regalo. (Juan gave me a gift.)
- Ella te prestó su libro. (She lent you her book.)
- Le dije la verdad a María. (I told the truth to Maria.)
- Nos mandaron una carta. (They sent us a letter.)
- Os enseñaré el camino. (I will show you all the way.)
- Les compré unos regalos a mis amigos. (I bought some gifts for my friends.)
