Italian grammar - Help!
How do I transform the following 2 sets of words: 
Noi portiamo/le riviste/a voi
Voi comprate/i libri/a noi?
as in the following example: 
Regalo/la cravatta/a te = Te la regalo
I'm getting confused how to use me, te, ce, ve

Answer

a te → ti
ti + la (la cravatta) → te la
te la regalo

a voi → vi
vi + le (le riviste) → ve le
ve le portiamo

a noi → ci
ci + li (i libri) → ce li
ce li comprate

Answer

Hi Crystal, the pronouns 'me, te, ce, ve' are simply the indirect pronouns 'mi, ti, ci, vi' (as DonHolgo clearly explained) that changes the 'i' in 'e' when they meet the direct pronouns 'lo, la, li, le' and the particella 'ne'.
