I've been making errors on Duolingo, and reading up on grammar. I still don't have a firm grasp on what I am getting wrong. Some sample sentences :
a) Me dirá los secretos si no se los digo a nadie. (I don't really get why there is a "se" and "a"...the first part of the sentence I can understand. Do we use se because him? And we use a because it's directed to someone else?)
b) Aquà tengo la aspiradora, ¿ (te la) doy para limpiar el piso del cuarto? (The "te la" in brackets is what I got wrong...that's the "give to you" part?)
c) Las sillas no le gustaron, asà que me las devuelve. (So the "que" becomes the subject of the sentence (chairs) but why is it las devuelve? I get confused where I need to use el/la/las in the second part of the sentence)
d) Las máquinas de esta compañÃa son silenciosas. (I understand this if "de" is "of" which is one use of it?)
Él quiere quedarse con ese abrigo, asà que lo va a comprar. (Once again I get the first part of the sentence, but not the "lo va a comprar" I get confused whenever it's "va a")
I know Spanish is Spanish and so I can't use the English grammatical order one for one, I am just trying to understand it better. Thanks, everyone for their help.
