Key learning points
- Grouping vocabulary by word class is a useful strategy for deepening understanding of words and their role in sentences.
- Direct object pronouns precede the verb. In negation, the direct object pronoun goes after ne and before the verb.
- Singular reflexive pronouns are me, te and se. They precede the verb.
- When translating, consider word order carefully, especially with direct object pronouns, reflexives and negation.
- Direct object pronouns can be used to answer questions more efficiently, by avoiding repetition of the noun.
