Using the verb ¨doler¨ to tell about what causes us pain.
The verb ¨doler¨ is a stem-changing verb o--->ue. When using it to talk about what body partes hurt us, we will only use the 3rd person singular or 3rd person plural. It functions like the verb ¨gustar.¨
¿Qué te duele?
Me duele la garganta.
¿Qué te duele?
Me duelen los ojos.
What are the subjects of the above sentences? Notice that the body part is the subject. It is causing the person pain. Also notice that while in English we use the possessive adjective, in Spanish we do not. Instead, we use the indirect object pronoun for the person who is receiving the pain signals. If you need a review of using the verb ¨gustar¨ with indirect object pronouns, refer to this page.
