What is the difference between Dios les bendiga and Dios los bendiga ?Feel free to just provide example sentences.

@ruru1222 Hmmm, this is a little hard to explain haha but I'll try to do my best...

We are talking about object pronouns (such as 'me, them, him, etc'). *Los* stands for them (male), *Las* stands for them (female), and *Les* stands for both cases.

So, we can use *Les* when the object is only females, only males and even both; males and females.

But...*Los* is also used as a "neutral" pronoun. In other words, *los* can also be used when we talk about females and males.

And here's where a little of history comes in...

As far as I know, the pronoun *les* was used in ancient Spanish as the only neutral object pronoun. Eventually, language evolved and the use of *los* became more popular. *Les* is also more formal and *los* is more casual. Ancient Spanish is well known for being more formal or even romantic. I think something similar happened with English.

To make a long story short *les* and *los* both work as neutral object pronouns. *Les* is more formal than *los*.

Hope this helps...and please let me know if I've made grammar mistakes.

Sorry for the laundry list by the way
