Direct VS Indirect Objects in English | Grammar Lesson with Examples

What are direct vs indirect objects in English, and how can you tell the difference between a direct object and an indirect object in a sentence? In this grammar lesson, I'll teach you how to identify direct and indirect objects using simple example sentences. Sentences contain subjects and objects in English. The subject of the sentence is the "doer" or performer of the action. The object of a sentence receives the action. A direct object is the thing or person that directly receives the action of the verb. It answers the questions “What?” or “Whom?” following an action verb. Example: Mary plays the guitar. Mary is the subject. The guitar is the direct object that receives the action of the verb "plays." An indirect object tells us who or what benefits from the action. It answers the questions “to whom?” or “for whom?” following an action verb. Example: Doug wrote me a letter. Doug is the subject. The letter is the direct object that receives the action of the verb "wrote." "Me" is the indirect object that benefits from the action. The letter was written FOR or TO me. This English lesson will provide more examples and steps on how to identify objects. There is a short quiz at the end of the lesson.
