The personal a' is used in Spanish when a direct object refers to a person or a pet that is considered part of the family, and is being affected by the action of the verb. It is used to show respect and acknowledge the humanity of the person/pet.
Example sentence in Spanish: Voy a visitar a mi abuela en el hospital. (I am going to visit my grandmother in the hospital.)
