The Personal “a”
 
A direct object is the person or thing that receives the action of the verb.
 
e.g. I hit the ball.
I visited my grandma.
 

 
When the direct object is  person or group of people, use the word “a” before the object.
 
Visité a mi abuela.
Vimos a Juan y Gloria.
 

 
You can also use the personal “a” with pets.
 
Busco a mi perro, Capitán.
 

 
Use the personal “a” in questions as well.
