A direct object is a noun or pronoun that receives the action of an action verb. It must follow an action verb and answers the question what or whom about that action verb. Example. Mary loves meatloaf. Meatloaf is the direct object, as it follows the action verb "loves" and answers the question: loves what? Meatloaf.
