 as subject of a verb was briefly pre-
 sented in section IT. We come now to
 the use of the personal pronoun as ob. | ject of verbs and propositions. It is rather difficult part of Spanish gram mar.
 | (a)-We recognize two ways of ex- pressing the indirect object. or the da- tive. and two for the accusative, or the direct object. One is called con- junctive. because the object pronoun iG inin fha nrh. ha way is called disjunctive or preposi- tional. because the object pronoun Is disjoned from the verb and governed b va proposition; me da, or da mi, he gives to me; te busca, or ii busca, he seeks thee. (b)-Very often disjunctive and con- junctive forms accompany the same verb. securing emphasis by redundancy of expression; me da a mi, or a mi me da, he gives (to) me; te busca a ii, ti te busca, he seeks three; le digo a ", or ledigo. I say it to you; les cstimo w. I esteem you.
 (c)-The conjunctive forms precede a finite verb. unless it begins a sentence or be an affirmative imperative. In the two latter cases. and also when the verb is an infinite or present partici- pie, the pronoun follows and is append ed as an additional syllable or syllables Qf two pronouns are added, see be- low); No me quites el libro, don't take the book from me; procura a tomario, he tries to take it; tomandolo, taking it. (d)-As examplesc (under b) above show the conjunctive dative and aecu- satiVe forms of usted, ustedes, are le and les, which mean also; to him, to her. to them, and him, her. them. Note, the following additional example: bus quel a w, fas no les encontrel, I sought you, but did not find you. (e)-The refiexive, SC, Is sometimes dative. sometimes accusative. Very often it represents an indefinite subject
 -one, they, we, people. Or the verb
 with SC may be rendered by our pass
 i've. Examples: Sc halla ocupado, he
 finds himself busy; Sc enganya, he de- | ceives himself; V. Sc enganya you de-
 ceive yourself; Sc dice. they say or it
 is said; aqui SC come bien, here one dinea (eats) well; aqui SC habli ingles,
 English is spokn here; Sc compran lib-
 ros viejos. old books are bought: SC
 quita el abrigo, he takes off his (Own) l oVercoat. O-Often a verb governs two con-
 1unctive object pronouns. The dative
 then precedes the accusative, unless one of the pronouns be 'se (himself, etc..) which must stand first. If le or les comes thus to stand before any ob- ject pronoun beginning with l. they change to SC; SC 10 doy a ". I give it to you; darselo. to give it to him (to them); SC To presto a ella, lend it to her; SC les envia, he sends them to them
