This show is called "Españoles en el mundo" not "Españoles por el mundo": https://www.rtve.es/alacarta/videos/espanoles-en-el-mundo/ It's one of my favorite shows in Spanish. Thank you for featuring it Kwiziq team!
In this question (I waited for them), it appears to me that "them" is an indirect object pronoun. Below, Gruff, a Kwiziq team member says this. However, this question is answered by using a direct object pronoun. I got it wrong when I used the indirect pronoun. Which is it? I would appreciate having this clarified as I keep getting this question and I don't know how to answer it. Thanks,
