what is an example of an indirect object
Indirect objects are nouns or pronouns that identify to whom or for whom the action of the verb is performed, as well as who is receiving the direct object. Indirect objects are seen infrequently. In order to have an indirect object, there is a direct object. The indirect object typically precedes the direct object and is identified by asking who or what received the direct object. Example 1: Samuel sent his aunt a postcard from Marthaâs Vineyard. âSamuelâ is the subject, and âsentâ is the verb.
