Tu amiga tiene muy mala memoria, te prestó algunas cosas pero tú le devolviste todo. Escucha sus preguntas y contéstalas (answer them) según el modelo.
Oyes: ¿Me devolviste las fotos?
Dices y escribes: Sí, te las devolví.
Oyes: ¿Y la calculadora?
Dices y escribes: Sí, te la devolví.
1. ¿Te mostró Cristina su mochila nueva?
¿Y su suéter?
¿Y sus botas?
2. ¿Les mandaste la carta a tus padres?
¿Y el regalo?
¿Y las fotos?
i tried 2 times for both, for some reason i can't understand direct object and indirect object... help plz
for no 1 would it be
Sí, me la mostré. OR Sí, se la mostré.??
1. Sí, me la mostró.
Si, me las mostró.
2. Sí, se la mandé.
Sí, se las mandé.
For #1, if you said "me la mostré" it would mean: "I showed it to MYSELF." So it IS "se la mostré." = I showed it TO HER.
For Indirect-Object pronouns:
me = to, for, at or from (either stated or understood) me
te = to, for, at or from you (familiar/singular)
le = to, for, at or from him, her, it, you (formal/singular) *both "le" an "les" change to "se" when followed by a direct-object pronoun beginning with the letter "l" = lo, la, los or las
nos = to, for, at or from us
os = to, for, at or from you-all (familiar/plural)
les = to, for, at or from them, you-all (formal/plural)
Direct-object pronouns:
me (me)
te (you-singular/familiar)
lo (him, it for masculine singular noun or you (Ud. = formal/singular & masculine)
la (her, it for feminine singular noun or you (Ud. = formal/singular/feminine)
nos (us)
os (you-all, familiar/plural)
los (them, you-all masculine formal plural = ustedes)
las (them, you-all feminine formal plural)

To answer your question, the correct response to the first scenario would be "Sí, me la mostró." Let me explain why:
In Spanish, direct object pronouns (like "la") are used to replace the direct object of a sentence, which is the thing or person that receives the action directly. In this case, the direct object is "mostró la mochila nueva" (showed the new backpack). Since "mochila" is a feminine noun, we use the feminine direct object pronoun "la."
Regarding the indirect object, we don't have an indirect object in this sentence. An indirect object indicates the person or thing to whom or for whom an action is done. For example, in the sentence "I gave him the book," "him" is the indirect object.
Now let's move on to the second scenario. The correct response would be "Sí, se las mandé." Here's the explanation:
In this case, we have multiple direct objects: "la carta" (the letter), "el regalo" (the present), and "las fotos" (the photos). When there are multiple direct objects, we use the pronoun "se" before the verb to represent them. In this case, we use "se las" because the direct objects are feminine plural ("carta" and "fotos") and the pronoun agrees with them.
Again, there is no indirect object in this sentence.
For question 1:
Sí, me la mostró. (Yes, she showed me her new backpack.)
Sí, me lo mostró. (Yes, she showed me her sweater.)
Sí, me las mostró. (Yes, she showed me her boots.)
For question 2:
Sí, se la mandé. (Yes, I sent the letter to my parents.)
Sí, se lo mandé. (Yes, I sent the gift to them.)
Sí, se las mandé. (Yes, I sent the photos to them.)
Note: In Spanish, the direct object pronouns (lo, la, los, las) agree in gender and number with the noun they replace. The indirect object pronouns (me, te, le, nos, les) indicate to whom or for whom something is done. In the examples above, I assume that Cristina is the one showing or sending the items to the speaker.
