Thanks to Kevin Macleod for the music in today’s lesson.

Direct Object Pronouns can be tough to master at first. Are there any questions regarding the grammar in today’s lesson?

SpanishPod101.com says:

How does the placement of the direct object pronoun effect its use? Can the placement be changed?

Alan and Lisy - I’m a huge fan of this program. I’m a busy attorney here in the U.S. and this is perfect for learning Spanish on the go in my car (while battling NYC traffic). I can then look at the PDFs briefly when I get into the office to review. I already speak another language (Japanese), so I know what to look for in terms of language learning materials, and I think this is the best resource I have come across. Keep it up! I’ll download whatever you guys put on this site.

Blake,

Hey there. Thanks for your feedback. I’m really glad you’re enjoying the course. I agree. I think Lizy and Alan are doing a great job too. Like I said in the forum, the first five lessons of the Upper Intermediate Series will be devoted to Negotiating a Contract in Spanish.

This was a great idea, and I’d like to thank you again for offering it. I know that many of the situations we’ve been focusing on have been “informal” so far, and I think it will be a nice change and add depth to the course to include some more “formal” situations.

It’s also really interesting to learn how you listen to our show (in NYC traffic!, hehe). I am interested, do you listen to the main audio or do you also go through some of the review too?

Are there any other topics (situational or grammar) that you’d like us to cover in future lessons? We’re here to please, so, please, don’t hesitate to let us know.

Bueno, otra vez, gracias por escuchar. Nos da mucho gusto tener un oyente como usted entre nosotros.

Muchos saludos,
Joseph

Hi Blake,

Thanks for the kind words. We have lot of fun putting these together, but it is a lot of work, too. Nice to see that we are helping.

Say.. Did you know that lawyers are called “Doctor” here in Peru, and other South American countries? I always thought that that had a nice ring to it.

Saludos,
Alan
