A Grammar Lesson: Direct and Indirect Objects. An object is the part of a sentence that gives meaning to the subjectâs action of the verb. Alice caught the baseball. A direct object answers the question of who(m) or what.
If a clause also contains an indirect object, the indirect object usually appears between the verb and the direct object: Jake [subject] baked [transitive verb] Kate [indirect object] a cake [direct object]. When pronouns function as direct objects, they customarily take the form of the objective case.
