Questions & Answers about Mañana la voy a llamar.

Why is the word for "her" (la) placed before the verbs?
In Spanish, object pronouns like la normally go right before the conjugated verb (in this case, voy). So, saying la voy a llamar is completely correct and very common.
Could I attach la to the end of llamar instead?
Yes! When you have an infinitive verb (the unconjugated form, like llamar), you are allowed to attach the pronoun directly to the end of it. Saying Mañana voy a llamarla is also completely correct and means exactly the same thing.
How do we know who is calling if the word yo (I) isn't here?
The verb voy (I am going) is the "yo" form of the verb ir. Because the verb tells us exactly who is doing the action, Spanish speakers usually drop subject pronouns like yo.
Is the a in this sentence the "personal a" used for people?
No, the a here is just part of the "going to" formula: ir a + infinitive. So voy a means "I am going to". If you used a person's name instead of la, you would actually need a second a for the personal "a" rule, like this: Voy a llamar a Sara.
