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.
Definition: An indirect object precedes the direct object and tells to whom or for whom the action of the verb is done and who is receiving the direct object. There must be a direct object to have an indirect object. Indirect objects are usually found with verbs of giving or communicating like give, bring, tell, show, take, or offer. An indirect object is always a noun or pronoun which is not part of a prepositional phrase. Indirect objects are usually placed directly before the direct object. For example: He gave Mary a rose.
