*We use direct object pronouns to avoid repeating nouns that have already been mentioned, usually to answer a question when it’s clear what you’re referring to:
Quiero  la falda.  --> La quiero.
I want the skirt. --> I want it.
In this example “the skirt” is replaced by “la”
Direct Object Pronouns must agree in number and gender with the noun they replace. You know which direct object pronoun to use based on the definite article that comes before it in a sentence. Essentially, the direct object pronoun replaces both the definite article and the thing.
Note that el changes to lo, while la, los and las stay the same
                            Masc.               Feminine
singular         lo  (it, him)                la (it, her)
plural            los (them)                 las (them)
definite article  -->   Direct object pronoun
                el             →         lo
                los            →       los
                 la            →        la
                las          →         las
When talking about people use the following direct object pronouns to refer to them:
yo  me
tú  te
nosotros   nos
vosotros  os
Direct Object Pronouns go:
Before a conjugated verb
or      2.  after and attached to the infinitive
It you are using both a conjugated verb and an infinitive in a sentence/question, you can place the direct object pronoun either before the conjugated verb OR after & attached to the infinitve.
Example:  ¿Quieres comprar los zapatos?
Sí, los quiero comprar.      OR      Sí, quiero comprarlos.
