LeÃsmo
Assuming that my object pronouns all refer to people below, are my sentences correct?
Am I correct in saying that only 1 and 3 allow for 'leÃsmo' to take place?
Many thanks in advance. |

I believe that is correct, but I'm not very familiar with leÃsmo in practical usage. Remember to only use it in areas where leÃsmo is common.

According to the RAE, "leÃsmo" is accepted when the direct object is a man. ("Le quiero".)
When it's a plural --"les quiero"-- its use is advised against, and it's considered plain incorrect when it's an inanimate object. When it's a woman, "le" is accepted in impersonal sentences --"a mi abuela se le querÃa mucho en el pueblo". There is also a "leÃsmo de cortesÃa", which is used for people to whom you call "usted": "Disculpe, no le habÃa visto; ¿le puedo atender?"

Many thanks, guys.
With the "leÃsmo de cortesÃa", does the same rule apply to the plural form? Examples: Encantado de conocerlo. (male) Encantado de conocerla. (female) Encantado de conocerle. (male or female, or is it just male?) Encantado de conocerlos. (male, plural) Encantado de conocerlas. (female, plural) Encantado de conocerles. (male or female, or is it just male?) I have heard this last one used quite a lot for mixed gender... |

If I understand well, when it's "leÃsmo de cortesÃa", it doesn't matter if they're males or females, the only thing one needs is that you would address them as "ustedes".
