Can someone please check my answers? These are Direct and Indirect object pronouns practice problems I'm doing and I wanted to make sure I'm doing them right. Thanks a bunch!:)
1.) We want to buy a house for you.
My answer: Queremos comprar una casa para usted.
2.) She bought a house.
My answer: Compró una casa.
3.) I walked the dog for you.
My answer: Me acerqué al perro para usted.
4.) I walked the dog for Mom.
My answer: Me acerqué al perro para mamá.
I'll send this to SraJMcGin.
Now then are the directions to use PRONOUNS? If so, where are they in your sentences?
1. Queremos comprársela OR Se la queremos comprar. (feel free to add para usted at the end)
2. La compró. (2nd half of assignment)
3. to walk = pasear / to approach = acercarse a Which are you to us e?
Se lo paseé (para usted to clarify the "le" which became "se"o)
4. Paseé al perro para mamá. Se lo paseé (para mamá)
In case you have additional questions, I'll flag this and come back later.
Sra
Sure! I'd be happy to check your answers for you.
1.) We want to buy a house for you.
Your answer: Queremos comprar una casa para usted.
The correct answer is: Queremos comprar una casa para ti.
To determine the correct answer, you need to use the direct object pronoun "te" instead of "usted" since it is addressing "you" informally.
2.) She bought a house.
Your answer: Compró una casa.
The correct answer is: Ella compró una casa.
Your sentence is correct! "Ella compró una casa" means "She bought a house."
3.) I walked the dog for you.
Your answer: Me acerqué al perro para usted.
The correct answer is: Yo paseé el perro por ti.
To express the idea of walking the dog for someone, you should use the indirect object pronoun "por ti" instead of "para ti". Also, the correct verb for "walking the dog" is "pasear," so the correct sentence would be "Yo paseé el perro por ti."
4.) I walked the dog for Mom.
Your answer: Me acerqué al perro para mamá.
The correct answer is: Yo paseé el perro para mamá.
To express the idea of walking the dog for Mom, you should use the indirect object pronoun "para mamá" instead of "por mamá". Also, the correct verb for "walking the dog" is "pasear," so the correct sentence would be "Yo paseé el perro para mamá."
Overall, your answers are mostly correct, with minor adjustments needed in sentence 1 and 3. Keep up the good work!
