How to Say "give us" in Spanish
The Spanish word for “give us” is “danos” — A1 level. This is a very common word in everyday Spanish.
Examples

Commands and Pronoun Attachment
When you give an affirmative command (telling someone to do something), you attach the object pronouns directly to the verb form. 'Danos' is the command 'da' (give) plus the pronoun 'nos' (us).
Stress and Accent Marks
Because the original command 'da' is only one syllable, no written accent mark is needed on 'danos', even though the stress falls on the first syllable (DA-nos).
Placement in Negative Commands
Mistake: “No danos la respuesta. (Incorrect word order)”
Correction: No nos des la respuesta. (The pronoun 'nos' goes *before* the verb in negative commands.)
