Lo voy a pensar.
Lo haré hoy mismo.
Quizás no lo haga hoy.
Lo tomaré en cuenta.
- Spanish (Spain)
Puedes usar "lo" para acortar oraciones en una conversación. Por ejemplo:
- Durante las vacaciones estuve leyendo un libro muy bueno.
- Que libro leíste?
- Leí Harry Potter, me encantaría que lo leas y me digas tu opinión.
En este caso utilizas "lo" para hacer referencia al libro. Este uso es muy común para no repetir palabras
- Spanish (Spain)
"Lo/la/los/las" are direct objects
"Le/les" are indirect objects
("se" replaces "le/les" when both the direct and the indirect object are replaced)
▪Yo quiero eso
- Eso: direct object
-> Yo lo quiero (direct object replaced)
▪He comprado un regalo a María
- Un regalo: direct object
- A María: indirect object
-> Lo he comprado a María (direct object replaced)
-> Le he comprado un regalo (indirect object replaced)
-> Se lo he comprado a María (both objects replaced) (see that "le" became "se")
▪Habla a Laura
- Laura: indirect object
-> Háblale (indirect object replaced)
▪Quiero mucho a mi novio
- A mi novio: direct object
-> Lo quiero mucho (direct object replaced)
▪Da el reloj a Dani
- El reloj: direct object
- A Dani: indirect object
-> Dalo a Dani (direct object replaced)
-> Dale el reloj (indirect object replaced)
-> Dáselo (both objects replaced)
To not get confused you have to know very well how the direct and indirect objects work in Spanish.

Also, in Spanish you can repeat the indirect objects, and it's the most common thing.
For example, the sentences "he comprado un reloj a María", "lo he comprado a María", "habla a Laura", "da el reloj a Dani" and "dalo a Dani" don't sound natural. What we would say is:
-> Le he comprado un reloj a María
-> Se lo he comprado a María
-> Háblale a Laura
-> Dale el reloj a Dani
-> Dáselo a Dani
In every sentence the indirect object is repeated.
