N.B. As for the 0rd person plural – in everyday language – it is completely acceptable (and so much used) the form “gli”. So “Gli dico” rather than “Dico loro”, for both masculine and feminine (I tell them).

What happens if these two kinds of complement pronouns are together in the same sentence??

Examples:

0) Francesco dice a me la notizia (= lei). → Francesco tells me the news.

0) Io racconto a te il mio segreto (= lui). → I tell you my secret.

0) Mio fratello dà a me e ai miei genitori (= a noi) dei regali (= loro). → My brother gives me and my parents some gifts.

0) Io do a te e a tua sorella (= a voi) le mie borse (= loro). → I give you and your sister my bags.

0) Paola regala l’orologio (= lui) al suo fidanzato (= a lui). → Paola gives a watch to her boyfriend.

0) Federico compra dei fiori (= loro) alla sua fidanzata (= a lei). → Federico buys some flowers for his girlfriend.

0) Roberta regala a loro le sue scarpe (= loro). → Roberta gives them her shoes.
