Hola,

In this lesson we have the example of "Si, te quiero."

The direct object pronouns introduced are: Me, Te, Nos, and Os. The other direct object lesson referred to deals with: lo, la, los, and las. 

What is the direct object pronoun for "Usted", the formal of "Tu"; or "Ustedes", the plural of "Tu" in Latin America?

I seem to remember it to be: "le" and "les" respectively.

For example, I would say to my elderly neighbor, "Si, yo le quiero"

Is this correct? And, is there a lesson that covers the direct object pronouns for "usted" and "ustedes"?

Gracias,

N. Hilary

Hi, I used the word "trancón" for traffic jam, but it was not recognized as a correct alternative. How come? 

As equivalent English examples, may I suggest:

To be opened with care.

To be applied...

rather than "Let it be opened..." etc?

When should you use reflexive verbs?

"con todas las velas?" Right now it says "todas la velas"

The above is an A2 question and the expected answer is te however no guidance is given that a singular informal tense is to be used.

Couldn't le, les or os also be used here if no further context is given.

No hay duda de que este restaurante lo tiene todo para triunfar.

I don't understand the function of LO in this sentence. Can it be omitted?

Gracias

The answer says:  Pasó dos días sumergido en plena naturaleza sin que nadie lo molestara enviándole mensajes o llamándolo.

Can you also say: Pasó dos días sumergido plena naturaleza sin que nadie le molestara enviándole mensajes o llamándole.

Is this  Spain vs Latin America  grammar?    Also, in general, I thought molestar was an inverted verb like gustar and required "le."

I was wondering how ir + gerund compares with andar + gerund?

Are there other similar idiomatic expressions or must one use the conventional gramatical constructs? For example:

If you were me... (Tú que yo?) 

If I were him... (Yo que él?) 

If he were you... (Él que tu?) 

etc.
