How do you use direct object pronouns and indirect object pronouns in Spanish sentences? In Spanish sentences, direct object pronouns replace the direct object (the noun that receives the action of the verb), while indirect object pronouns replace the indirect object (the person or thing that receives the direct object). Direct object pronouns usually come before the conjugated verb, while indirect object pronouns typically come before the direct object pronouns or attached to the infinitive verb.
