The Spanish particle lo can appear in three different syntactic structures which are described in this paper. Depending on the structure in which it is inserted, lo can have three different functions: pronoun, intensifier and emphatic particle/element.
At the same time, the Norwegian definite neutrum particle det is analysed, in order to see to what extent the Norwegian det covers the three functions the Spanish lo can have.
Keywords: neutral pronoun, particle lo, emphatic element
