Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the 'los' at the end and not at the beginning?

In Spanish, when a verb is in its 'infinitive' form (the basic 'to' form like 'to take'), pronouns like 'them' are required to stick to the end of the word.

Does 'llevarlos' only apply to people?

No, it can apply to anything that is masculine and plural, such as 'libros' (books), 'perros' (dogs), or 'amigos' (friends).
