Indirect objects come between the verb and direct object.ĭid you notice that the subject uses the pronoun I but the objects use the pronoun me ? Subject and object pronouns are different, so make sure you’re using the right one.
In the example above, the indirect object is me, because that’s who receives the calculator. The indirect object is the noun that receives the direct object.
In this case, the direct object is the thing being lent-a calculator. The word calculator is what’s called a direct object, the noun that receives the action. In this example, lends is the verb and my buddy is the subject because they’re the one lending. Let’s say you forgot your calculator and you ask your friend to borrow theirs. Some sentences can add objects, which are nouns that also participate in the action. The verb is stop, and no subject is necessary because it’s a command. We can assume the subject is the person the speaker is talking to. The exception to this rule is imperative sentences (commands), which only need a verb. The main verb is wait, but when we conjugate it in the present continuous, we use the – ing form and add the auxiliary verb am.
