I am learning Spanish by myself, and the “se + me, te, le, les or nos (indirect object) + verb” structure has been a huge obstacle.
Here is a sentence that seems to use this structure.
A) A continuación se les ofrece el resumen de otra novela suya... (Below is the summary of another novel of his ...)
I am struggling to find out:
1. What is the function so “les” here? Does it mean “a ustedes”?
2. Is this structure the same one as in the sentences below? Both B) and C) means something happens in sudden, to someone's surprise, but A) doesn't.
B) Se me ocurre a mí viajar a España.
C) De repente, a Pablo se le ocurrió una idea.
3. What is the name of this structure? “Pasiva refleja”? I tried to search for explanations in grammar books but failed, since I don't know the exact name of this structure.
Thanks a lot!
