While all students study a set of core subjects, called <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>el tronco com\u00fan<\/em><\/span>, some may begin to take more in-depth or hands-on courses to prepare for college study or a particular career.

In the United States, there are three different systems that work together to determine a student\u2019s level of success: percentage, grade point average (GPA), and most importantly, letter grade. While the percentage equivalent of letter grades varies depending on the institution, program, and even professor, the grade letters A, B, C, D, and F are universally understood in the US to signify a student\u2019s level of achievement.\r\n\r\nWhile terms such as <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>sobresaliente<\/em><\/span> or <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>distinguido<\/em><\/span> (excellent or outstanding); <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>bueno<\/em><\/span>, <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>aprobado<\/em><\/span>, or <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>suficiente<\/em><\/span> (good, pass, or sufficient); and <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>reprobado<\/em><\/span> or <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>suspenso<\/em><\/span> (failed) are used and understood across Spanish-speaking countries, a numerical system of grading is the way to evaluate students. Mexico, Argentina, Costa Rica, and Spain grade 1\u201310, with 1 being low and 10 high, though the passing grade (usually 5 or 6) varies. In Chile, students are ranked 1\u20137, with 4 representing a passing grade. Bolivia and Panama rate students out of 100; Venezuela and Peru out of 20; Uruguay out of 12; and Paraguay, Cuba, and Colombia out of 5.[footnote]\u201cTabla de conversi\u00f3n de calificaciones,\u201d Universidad de Granada, Vicerrectorado de Relaciones Internacionales, May 13, 2010, <a href=\"https:\/\/internacional.ugr.es\/pages\/movilidad\/tablaconversioncalificaciones\/!\">https:\/\/internacional.ugr.es\/pages\/movilidad\/tablaconversioncalificaciones\/!<\/a>.[\/footnote]\r\n\r\nDespite these variations, one constant across Spanish-speaking countries is that the higher the number, the better the score. While this notion is consistent with US grading practices as well, it is by no means universal.\r\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--examples\"><header class=\"textbox__header\">\r\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Actividad de reflexi\u00f3n 5.5. \u00bfC\u00f3mo son tus notas?<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/header>\r\n<div class=\"textbox__content\">\r\n\r\nAnswer the following questions in a few complete sentences in Spanish.\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Cuando piensas en tus notas, \u00bfpiensas en una letra (A, B, C, D o F) o un porcentaje? \u00bfPor qu\u00e9?<\/li>\r\n \t<li>\u00bfQu\u00e9 porcentaje crees que representa las siguientes notas?\r\na.

American students often feel immense pressure to maintain a certain GPA or achieve a minimum B+ or A\u2212 in their classes. While students in all countries certainly desire to and feel pressure to be successful, how that success is measured varies.\r\n\r\nIn Spanish-speaking countries, it is much less common to earn extremely high grades such as As or perfect 10s (or 5s, 12s, or 20s). Whereas almost any student who can afford it can attend <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>a<\/em><\/span> college in the United States\u2014if not the most prestigious or with a \u201cfull ride\u201d\u2014universities are generally much less expensive but also much more competitive in the Hispanic world.\r\n\r\nStudents must not only be accepted into the university of their choice but, more importantly, be accepted into the <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>facultad<\/em><\/span>, or school, within the university\u2014think School of Business, School of Nursing, School of Arts, School of History. In order to gain acceptance, prospective students must study for and achieve a high score on a rigorous entrance exam administered by the university or a testing organization, along with meeting other entrance criteria. While standardized college entrance exams are being given increasingly less weight in the United States, with many universities now waiving the requirement for the SAT or ACT, these exams continue to be an integral (and nerve-wracking) part of the college admissions process for students in Spanish-speaking countries. Furthermore, most universities and <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>facultades<\/em><\/span> do not specify a minimum passing grade; students are compared with other prospective students in their cohort, and each group vies for a limited number of spaces. It is not uncommon, therefore, for students to sit more than once for the exam in order to gain entrance to the <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>universidad<\/em><\/span> and <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>facultad<\/em><\/span> of their choosing.\r\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--examples\"><header class=\"textbox__header\">\r\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Actividad interpretativa 5.6.

You might have noticed an emphasis on the word <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>university<\/em><\/span> or <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>universidad<\/em><\/span> throughout these pages. That\u2019s because institutions of higher education in Spanish-speaking countries tend to be larger, with a focus on both undergraduate and graduate studies and research. This is what distinguishes a university (focus on research, inclusion of graduate programs) from a \u201ccollege\u201d (smaller, undergraduate only) in the United States.\r\n\r\nAs has already been mentioned, most universities in Spanish-speaking countries cost a fraction of what it costs to attend an American college or university. For example, in Spain, the average yearly cost for university studies is \u20ac1,300, whereas the sticker price for American colleges and universities can easily be ten, twenty, or thirty times higher (or more!) per year. A good portion of these additional costs have to do with the plethora of activities, services, and facilities offered at American colleges and universities. These include student support services, housing and meal services, and special facilities and extracurricular offerings, all of which contribute to the notion of \u201ccollege life\u201d or \u201ccampus life\u201d particular to the US. Of course, not all American students live on campus or participate in the clubs, activities, and organizations offered by their universities. On the other hand, in Spanish-speaking countries, the norm is for students to live and eat at home and go to the university just to attend class. Most universities still do offer student housing for those who for a variety of reasons may need a place to stay, but these students are the minority.\r\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--examples\"><header class=\"textbox__header\">\r\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Actividad 5.8.

Pronombres de complemento indirecto<\/h2>\r\nSeveral times in the <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>tira<\/em><\/span>, Pablo says, \u201cMi consejero me dice\u2026\u201d There are several possible translations of this phrase, which literally says \u201cMy advisor tells me.\u201d Even though the word order is different between English and Spanish, don\u2019t be fooled into thinking that the <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>me<\/em><\/span> means that <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>I<\/em><\/span> is the subject of the sentence. The <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>me<\/em><\/span> here functions as an indirect object pronoun, representing the noun that is indirectly receiving the action of the verb, <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>tell<\/em><\/span>.\r\n\r\nMi consejero me dice\u2026\r\n\r\n(Subject) (indirect object) (verb, conjugated to match the subject)\r\n\r\nIndirect objects are people, places, and things that receive or are affected <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>indirectly<\/em><\/span> by the action of a verb. You can find the indirect object of a verb by asking \u201cTo or for whom (or what)?\u201d to find the indirect object of a sentence. To whom did the advisor tell the information? To Pablo\u2014or in his case, \u201cto me.\u201d Indirect objects in Spanish are typically expressed through a pronoun\u2014a more general word that takes the place of a specific noun. Whereas in English, we need to say \u201c(to) me, (to) you, (to) him, (to) her, (to) us, and (to) them,\u201d in Spanish, we <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>can<\/em><\/span> say \u201ca m\u00ed, a t\u00ed, a \u00e9l, a ella, a nosotros, a vosotros, a ustedes,\u201d but we <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>must<\/em><\/span> include an indirect object pronoun\u2014\u201cme, te, lo, la, nos, os, los, las\u201d\u2014<span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>before<\/em><\/span> the verb. Take, for example, the following sentences:\r\n\r\nMi amigo <strong>me<\/strong> habla.\u2014My friend talks <strong>to me.<\/strong>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Ana <strong>te<\/strong> da un abrazo.\u2014Ana gives <strong>you<\/strong> a hug.<\/p>\r\nIndirect object pronouns in Spanish can be tricky for native speakers of English because of two main differences:\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Indirect object pronouns can be hard to identify in English. They sometimes have a preposition (\u201cMy friend talks <strong>to me<\/strong>\u201d) and sometimes do not (\u201cAna gives you a hug\u201d). Sometimes the indirect object is simply implied, as in \u201cMy advisor says\u2026\u201d though clearly the advisor is saying the advice to <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>someone<\/em><\/span>.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The placement of the indirect object pronoun is very different.\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>In English, object pronouns are placed <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>after<\/em><\/span> the verb: \u201cMy friend talks <strong>to me<\/strong>,\u201d \u201cAna gives <strong>you<\/strong> a hug.\u201d<\/li>\r\n \t<li>In Spanish, the pronoun is placed <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>before<\/em><\/span> the conjugated verb rather than after it, as in English.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>In Spanish, the object pronoun can also be attached to the end of an infinitive, as in \u201c\u00bfQuieres decir<strong>me<\/strong>?\u201d or \u201cM\u00e1s tarde va a gustar<strong>le<\/strong>.\u201d<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\nThere are also a couple of other situations in which the pronoun can be attached to the end of a verb, but in order to begin to change the order of your thinking (to \u201cMy friend to me speaks\u201d from \u201cMy friend speaks to me\u201d), it\u2019s a good idea to get in the habit of placing the pronoun <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>before<\/em><\/span> the conjugated verb. It can <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>never<\/em><\/span> go on its own after a conjugated verb, as in \u201cMi amiga habla me.\u201d\r\n\r\nSimilar to English, however, there are unique pronouns for each person. Refer to the chart below for the indirect object pronouns in Spanish and their meaning in English.\r\n<div align=\"left\">\r\n<table class=\"grid\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><\/td>\r\n<td>singular<\/td>\r\n<td><\/td>\r\n<td>plural<\/td>\r\n<td><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>first person<\/td>\r\n<td><strong>me<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td>(to) me<\/td>\r\n<td><strong>nos<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td>(to) us<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>second person<\/td>\r\n<td><strong>te<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td>(to) you<\/td>\r\n<td><strong>os<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td>(to) y\u2019all<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>third person<\/td>\r\n<td><strong>le<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td>(to) him\/her\/you<\/td>\r\n<td><strong>les<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td>(to) them \/ you all<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<\/tbody>\r\n<\/table>\r\n<\/div>\r\nIndirect object pronouns <strong>are almost always used<\/strong> if there is someone or something <strong>to or for whom<\/strong> the action takes place. It can be helpful to mentally pair certain verbs with indirect object pronouns, since they tend to go together. Two verbs that you have already learned that often take an indirect object pronoun are <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>decir<\/em><\/span> and <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>dar<\/em><\/span>.\r\n\r\nWhen someone is telling someone something or giving something <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>to someone<\/em><\/span>, in Spanish, you should include an indirect object pronoun. This is different from American English, where we might omit the indirect object altogether. For example, in the phrase \u201cMi consejero me dice,\u201d we might just as often say \u201cMy advisor says.\u201d In Spanish, though, we <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>do<\/em><\/span> want to include the indirect object pronoun if someone is being directly spoken to, is receiving something, or is generally indirectly affected by the action of the verb.

While we tend to translate <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>me gusta<\/em><\/span> as \u201cI like,\u201d it is important to note that this structure in Spanish is very different from the verb <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>like<\/em><\/span> in English. The main difference is that <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>gustar<\/em><\/span> and verbs like it take an <strong>indirect object pronoun<\/strong> and have a different subject than the person who likes or doesn\u2019t like an activity. The best literal translation of the verb gustar is \u201cto be pleasing to,\u201d since that translation accounts for the fact that the thing or activity is actually the subject of the verb, and the person <strong>to whom<\/strong> the activity is pleasing is represented using a direct object pronoun.\r\n\r\nWhen I say \u201c<strong>Me gusta correr<\/strong> (en el parque),\u201d I am actually saying \u201cRunning (in the park) is pleasing to me.\u201d The subject of the verb <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>gustar<\/em> <\/span>is the activity correr and not <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>yo<\/em><\/span>.

In the United States, there are three different systems that work together to determine a student\u2019s level of success: percentage, grade point average (GPA), and most importantly, letter grade. While the percentage equivalent of letter grades varies depending on the institution, program, and even professor, the grade letters A, B, C, D, and F are universally understood in the US to signify a student\u2019s level of achievement.<\/p>\n<p>While terms such as <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>sobresaliente<\/em><\/span> or <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>distinguido<\/em><\/span> (excellent or outstanding); <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>bueno<\/em><\/span>, <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>aprobado<\/em><\/span>, or <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>suficiente<\/em><\/span> (good, pass, or sufficient); and <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>reprobado<\/em><\/span> or <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>suspenso<\/em><\/span> (failed) are used and understood across Spanish-speaking countries, a numerical system of grading is the way to evaluate students. Mexico, Argentina, Costa Rica, and Spain grade 1\u201310, with 1 being low and 10 high, though the passing grade (usually 5 or 6) varies. In Chile, students are ranked 1\u20137, with 4 representing a passing grade. Bolivia and Panama rate students out of 100; Venezuela and Peru out of 20; Uruguay out of 12; and Paraguay, Cuba, and Colombia out of 5.<a class=\"footnote\" title=\"\u201cTabla de conversi\u00f3n de calificaciones,\u201d Universidad de Granada, Vicerrectorado de Relaciones Internacionales, May 13, 2010, https:\/\/internacional.ugr.es\/pages\/movilidad\/tablaconversioncalificaciones\/!.\" id=\"return-footnote-318-2\" href=\"#footnote-318-2\" aria-label=\"Footnote 2\"><sup class=\"footnote\">[2]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Despite these variations, one constant across Spanish-speaking countries is that the higher the number, the better the score.

American students often feel immense pressure to maintain a certain GPA or achieve a minimum B+ or A\u2212 in their classes. While students in all countries certainly desire to and feel pressure to be successful, how that success is measured varies.<\/p>\n<p>In Spanish-speaking countries, it is much less common to earn extremely high grades such as As or perfect 10s (or 5s, 12s, or 20s).

In order to gain acceptance, prospective students must study for and achieve a high score on a rigorous entrance exam administered by the university or a testing organization, along with meeting other entrance criteria. While standardized college entrance exams are being given increasingly less weight in the United States, with many universities now waiving the requirement for the SAT or ACT, these exams continue to be an integral (and nerve-wracking) part of the college admissions process for students in Spanish-speaking countries. Furthermore, most universities and <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>facultades<\/em><\/span> do not specify a minimum passing grade; students are compared with other prospective students in their cohort, and each group vies for a limited number of spaces. It is not uncommon, therefore, for students to sit more than once for the exam in order to gain entrance to the <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>universidad<\/em><\/span> and <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>facultad<\/em><\/span> of their choosing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--examples\">\n<header class=\"textbox__header\">\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Actividad interpretativa 5.6.

La vida universitaria en Costa Rica\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Conexi\u00f3n cultural: La vida universitaria<\/h3>\n<p>Together with differences in the division of educational levels, grading, cost, and competitiveness, there are some fundamental differences in the type of experience students expect from their university studies. You might have noticed an emphasis on the word <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>university<\/em><\/span> or <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>universidad<\/em><\/span> throughout these pages. That\u2019s because institutions of higher education in Spanish-speaking countries tend to be larger, with a focus on both undergraduate and graduate studies and research. This is what distinguishes a university (focus on research, inclusion of graduate programs) from a \u201ccollege\u201d (smaller, undergraduate only) in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>As has already been mentioned, most universities in Spanish-speaking countries cost a fraction of what it costs to attend an American college or university. For example, in Spain, the average yearly cost for university studies is \u20ac1,300, whereas the sticker price for American colleges and universities can easily be ten, twenty, or thirty times higher (or more!) per year. A good portion of these additional costs have to do with the plethora of activities, services, and facilities offered at American colleges and universities. These include student support services, housing and meal services, and special facilities and extracurricular offerings, all of which contribute to the notion of \u201ccollege life\u201d or \u201ccampus life\u201d particular to the US. Of course, not all American students live on campus or participate in the clubs, activities, and organizations offered by their universities. On the other hand, in Spanish-speaking countries, the norm is for students to live and eat at home and go to the university just to attend class. Most universities still do offer student housing for those who for a variety of reasons may need a place to stay, but these students are the minority.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--examples\">\n<header class=\"textbox__header\">\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Actividad 5.8.

This is the same in English and in Spanish.<\/p>\n<p>Examples:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Right now, I am writing a message.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Ahora, estoy escribiendo un mensaje.<\/p>\n<p>In English, the present participle is formed by using a form of the verb <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>to be<\/em><\/span> and a present participle. The present participle is formed by adding -ing to the verb:<\/p>\n<p><strong>I am<\/strong> drink<strong>ing<\/strong> water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>She is<\/strong> watch<strong>ing<\/strong> TV.<\/p>\n<p>In Spanish, the present progressive is formed by using a form of the verb <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>estar<\/em><\/span> plus a present participle. In order to form the present participle, it is necessary to do the following:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Drop the ending of the verb. This is the -ar, -er, or -ir located at the end of the verb.<\/li>\n<li>Add the following endings:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">For -ar verbs: -ando<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">For -er and -ir verbs: -ando or -iendo<\/p>\n<p>See the examples below:<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<table class=\"grid\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 317.917px;\"><strong>Form of the verb <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>estar<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 342.65px;\"><strong>Bailar<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 317.917px;\">Estoy<\/p>\n<p>Est\u00e1s<\/p>\n<p>Estamos<\/p>\n<p>Est\u00e1n<\/p>\n<p>Est\u00e1is<\/p>\n<p>Est\u00e1n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 342.65px;\">Bailando<\/p>\n<p>Bailando<\/p>\n<p>Bailando<\/p>\n<p>Bailando<\/p>\n<p>Bailando<\/p>\n<p>Bailando<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<table class=\"grid\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 48.5093%;\"><strong>Form of the verb <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>estar<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 51.3896%;\"><strong>Comer<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 48.5093%;\">Estoy<\/p>\n<p>Est\u00e1s<\/p>\n<p>Estamos<\/p>\n<p>Est\u00e1n<\/p>\n<p>Est\u00e1is<\/p>\n<p>Est\u00e1n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 51.3896%;\">Comiendo<\/p>\n<p>Comiendo<\/p>\n<p>Comiendo<\/p>\n<p>Comiendo<\/p>\n<p>Comiendo<\/p>\n<p>Comiendo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>In both English and Spanish, the same present participle is used for all the forms.

Pronombres de complemento indirecto<\/h2>\n<p>Several times in the <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>tira<\/em><\/span>, Pablo says, \u201cMi consejero me dice\u2026\u201d There are several possible translations of this phrase, which literally says \u201cMy advisor tells me.\u201d Even though the word order is different between English and Spanish, don\u2019t be fooled into thinking that the <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>me<\/em><\/span> means that <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>I<\/em><\/span> is the subject of the sentence. The <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>me<\/em><\/span> here functions as an indirect object pronoun, representing the noun that is indirectly receiving the action of the verb, <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>tell<\/em><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Mi consejero me dice\u2026<\/p>\n<p>(Subject) (indirect object) (verb, conjugated to match the subject)<\/p>\n<p>Indirect objects are people, places, and things that receive or are affected <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>indirectly<\/em><\/span> by the action of a verb. You can find the indirect object of a verb by asking \u201cTo or for whom (or what)?\u201d to find the indirect object of a sentence. To whom did the advisor tell the information? To Pablo\u2014or in his case, \u201cto me.\u201d Indirect objects in Spanish are typically expressed through a pronoun\u2014a more general word that takes the place of a specific noun. Whereas in English, we need to say \u201c(to) me, (to) you, (to) him, (to) her, (to) us, and (to) them,\u201d in Spanish, we <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>can<\/em><\/span> say \u201ca m\u00ed, a t\u00ed, a \u00e9l, a ella, a nosotros, a vosotros, a ustedes,\u201d but we <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>must<\/em><\/span> include an indirect object pronoun\u2014\u201cme, te, lo, la, nos, os, los, las\u201d\u2014<span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>before<\/em><\/span> the verb. Take, for example, the following sentences:<\/p>\n<p>Mi amigo <strong>me<\/strong> habla.\u2014My friend talks <strong>to me.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Ana <strong>te<\/strong> da un abrazo.\u2014Ana gives <strong>you<\/strong> a hug.<\/p>\n<p>Indirect object pronouns in Spanish can be tricky for native speakers of English because of two main differences:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Indirect object pronouns can be hard to identify in English. They sometimes have a preposition (\u201cMy friend talks <strong>to me<\/strong>\u201d) and sometimes do not (\u201cAna gives you a hug\u201d). Sometimes the indirect object is simply implied, as in \u201cMy advisor says\u2026\u201d though clearly the advisor is saying the advice to <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>someone<\/em><\/span>.<\/li>\n<li>The placement of the indirect object pronoun is very different.\n<ol>\n<li>In English, object pronouns are placed <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>after<\/em><\/span> the verb: \u201cMy friend talks <strong>to me<\/strong>,\u201d \u201cAna gives <strong>you<\/strong> a hug.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>In Spanish, the pronoun is placed <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>before<\/em><\/span> the conjugated verb rather than after it, as in English.<\/li>\n<li>In Spanish, the object pronoun can also be attached to the end of an infinitive, as in \u201c\u00bfQuieres decir<strong>me<\/strong>?\u201d or \u201cM\u00e1s tarde va a gustar<strong>le<\/strong>.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>There are also a couple of other situations in which the pronoun can be attached to the end of a verb, but in order to begin to change the order of your thinking (to \u201cMy friend to me speaks\u201d from \u201cMy friend speaks to me\u201d), it\u2019s a good idea to get in the habit of placing the pronoun <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>before<\/em><\/span> the conjugated verb. It can <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>never<\/em><\/span> go on its own after a conjugated verb, as in \u201cMi amiga habla me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Similar to English, however, there are unique pronouns for each person. Refer to the chart below for the indirect object pronouns in Spanish and their meaning in English.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<table class=\"grid\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>singular<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>plural<\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>first person<\/td>\n<td><strong>me<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(to) me<\/td>\n<td><strong>nos<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(to) us<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>second person<\/td>\n<td><strong>te<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(to) you<\/td>\n<td><strong>os<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(to) y\u2019all<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>third person<\/td>\n<td><strong>le<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(to) him\/her\/you<\/td>\n<td><strong>les<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>(to) them \/ you all<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>Indirect object pronouns <strong>are almost always used<\/strong> if there is someone or something <strong>to or for whom<\/strong> the action takes place. It can be helpful to mentally pair certain verbs with indirect object pronouns, since they tend to go together. Two verbs that you have already learned that often take an indirect object pronoun are <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>decir<\/em><\/span> and <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>dar<\/em><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>When someone is telling someone something or giving something <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>to someone<\/em><\/span>, in Spanish, you should include an indirect object pronoun. This is different from American English, where we might omit the indirect object altogether. For example, in the phrase \u201cMi consejero me dice,\u201d we might just as often say \u201cMy advisor says.\u201d In Spanish, though, we <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>do<\/em><\/span> want to include the indirect object pronoun if someone is being directly spoken to, is receiving something, or is generally indirectly affected by the action of the verb. Another example is <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>gustar<\/em><\/span> and verbs like it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"textbox textbox--examples\">\n<header class=\"textbox__header\">\n<p class=\"textbox__title\">Actividad 5.27.

While we tend to translate <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>me gusta<\/em><\/span> as \u201cI like,\u201d it is important to note that this structure in Spanish is very different from the verb <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>like<\/em><\/span> in English. The main difference is that <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>gustar<\/em><\/span> and verbs like it take an <strong>indirect object pronoun<\/strong> and have a different subject than the person who likes or doesn\u2019t like an activity. The best literal translation of the verb gustar is \u201cto be pleasing to,\u201d since that translation accounts for the fact that the thing or activity is actually the subject of the verb, and the person <strong>to whom<\/strong> the activity is pleasing is represented using a direct object pronoun.<\/p>\n<p>When I say \u201c<strong>Me gusta correr<\/strong> (en el parque),\u201d I am actually saying \u201cRunning (in the park) is pleasing to me.\u201d The subject of the verb <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>gustar<\/em> <\/span>is the activity correr and not <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>yo<\/em><\/span>. This is always the case with <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>gustar<\/em><\/span> and similar verbs. Below is a chart with verbs like <span style=\"color: #0a570a;\"><em>gustar<\/em><\/span> that take indirect object pronouns.
