Ayúdalo

Ayúdalo is the imperative form of the Spanish verb ayudar, combined with the clitic pronoun lo, and translates as “Help him” or “Help it.” It is used to urge someone to provide assistance to a male person or to a masculine noun previously mentioned in the discourse.

Grammatical notes: In Spanish, ayúda is the second person singular informal imperative of ayudar; the pronoun lo is attached to the end to form ayúdalo. Other clitic combinations include ayúdanos (help us), ayúdalos (help them), etc. The accent on ú marks the stressed syllable in the imperative form.

Usage: The phrase functions as a direct command or exhortation. It appears in everyday speech, as well as in charitable, humanitarian, and social contexts to prompt aid or action for someone in need. In media and advertising, Ayúdalo may be used as a slogan or as a title when referring to aid-related campaigns in Spanish-speaking regions.

Cultural references: There are instances of Ayúdalo being used as a title or headline in Spanish-language works, such as songs, short films, or campaign materials, though no single universally recognized work carries the title globally. The exact usage is highly regional and context-dependent.
