Le is the dative form (indirect object) of the third person singular in booth masculine and feminine. It is also used as the accusative of the same pronoun in singular and masculine. It comes before the verb because that is proper Spanish syntax. However, it can also correctly come after the verb when the imperative is used. "Dile que te digo." or in a question; "Puede decirle mis intenciones?"

In spanish do adjectives come before or after nouns?
In the English language, adjectives usually come before the nouns they describe. For example, "the bold text". The word "bold" is the adjective, and it comes before the noun it is describing.In some other languages, such as Spanish, adjectives come after the nouns.

How do you say ''does'' in Spanish?
There is no word for does in Spanish; it's implied. For example: English: Does he have a dog? Spanish: ¿Tiene un perro? English: Does Mary speak French? Spanish: ¿Mary habla francés? Yes, that's the way you do it, like it says above. There are other ways to say it but if you just use the word tiene just like that with no sentence then it means "have". Spanish is complicated when it come to what means what; I dont think about it when I speak it. It just comes out the correct way since I always speak Spanish in my family. (It's not my first language though, English is but i speak Spanish fluently, my whole family is Mexican.)
