Rusty,
Hmmm... So it is like saying "dale XYZ a Rafael" , le and Rafael being the indirect. Ok.
Actually, I usually speak the indirect like that correctly because that is the way they speak in Spain and that's where I learned. I can't always dissect the grammar, but I can usually think it out and, like I say, I usually say it right.
But I hae to admit that using lo and la as the direct object is something that I do stumble on. In fact, it is probably the only grammar that I will stumble on. The only other thing that I stumble on might be a lack of vocabulary, which I can deal with.
But this exchange has been helpful to me.
