Can someone help me with these two? Thanks! :)
Directions: Re-write the sentences in Spanish. The sentences are in all tenses.
1.) Include a direct or indirect object pronoun in the re-write:
He used to buy books for the students.
2.) We have eaten breakfast.
My answers:
1.)Solía comprar libros para los estudiantes.
2.) Hemos desayunado.
I'll send this to SraJMcGin, our Spanish expert.
1. You can also use the Imperfect = Compraba (unos/los) libros para los estudiantes.
IF you must use a direct ot indirect object pronoun, and those were the instructions = Les compraba libros para (a) los estudiantes.
2. correct but with pronoun = El desayuno, lo hemos comido.

Again, I 'll flag this in case y ou have further questions.
Great effort on your answers! However, let's double-check them and provide some explanations on how to arrive at the correct answers.
1.) To re-write the sentence in Spanish and include a direct or indirect object pronoun, we need to determine which pronoun to use. In this case, the direct object pronoun should be used because "books" is the direct object of the verb "to buy." The correct direct object pronoun for "books" is "los" (masculine plural). Therefore, the correct re-write would be:
"Él solía comprar los libros para los estudiantes."
2.) Your answer for the second sentence is correct! "Hemos desayunado" translates to "We have eaten breakfast." Well done!
Remember, when dealing with direct and indirect object pronouns, it's essential to identify the object and choose the appropriate pronoun based on its gender and number. Keep practicing, and you'll continue to improve!
