Your grandparents are arriving in a few hours, and your mother has a lot of questions. Answer her questions using direct-object pronouns.
Y tú, ¿estás preparando las empanadas?
Your response:
Si, los estás empanadas
¿Están tu papá y tu hermano limpiando el garaje?
Your response:
Sí, las están limpiando
Si, las estoy preparando.
Si, lo estan limpiando.
First of all here are the direct-object pronouns:
me (me), te (you, familiar, singular)
lo (it or him), la (it or her)
nos (us), os (you-all, familiar plural)
los (them, male only or male & female mixed) and las (them, females only)
accents =
Sí and están.

To answer your mother's questions using direct-object pronouns, you can follow these steps:
1. Identify the direct-object pronoun that replaces the noun in the question. In the first question, the direct-object pronoun "las" replaces "las empanadas." In the second question, the direct-object pronoun "el garaje" is replaced by the feminine plural pronoun "las."
2. Use the correct form of the verb that matches the subject and the direct-object pronoun. In the first question, the subject "tú" is preparing the empanadas, so you would use the second-person singular form of the verb "estar" conjugated as "estás." In the second question, the subject "tu papá y tu hermano" are cleaning the garage, so you would use the third-person plural form of the verb "estar" conjugated as "están."
3. Combine the verb with the appropriate direct-object pronoun to form the complete answer. In the first question, the complete answer would be "Sí, los estás empanadas," meaning "Yes, you are preparing them (the empanadas)." In the second question, the complete answer would be "Sí, las están limpiando," meaning "Yes, they are cleaning it (the garage)."
So, the answers to your mother's questions using direct-object pronouns are:
- Si, los estás empanadas. (Yes, you are preparing them.)
- Sí, las están limpiando. (Yes, they are cleaning it.)
