This depends on the rest of the sentence. But most of the time, it is neither. It is usually used in a prepositional phrase.
examples:
Doc went to that place. to makes that place part of a prepositional phrase which can never be a complement, simple subject, or simple predicate as it specifies a direction or position. that is probably why they are called prepositional phrases. "pre" means before
Frank scratched a place on his arm. place is the d.o. and there is no i.o. because his arm is part of a prepositional phrase.
He took over the place's water. (not sure if " 's " does anything to the sentence) water is d.o. and place is i.o.?
In a sentence, place can function as either a direct object or an indirect object. When it receives the action directly, it is a direct object; when it indicates the recipient of the action, it is an indirect object. For example, in the sentence "He put the book on the table," "place" is the direct object, but in "He gave the book to her," "her" is the indirect object.
In grammar, technique can serve as either a direct object or an indirect object, depending on how it is used in a sentence. For example, in the sentence "She taught me a new technique," "me" is the indirect object and "a new technique" is the direct object.
Direct object: food Indirect object: dog
I gave my dog a bone ('my dog' = indirect object; 'a bone' = direct object). They called me a taxi. (taxi - direct object, me- indirect object)
Direct object: his first film Indirect object: Spielberg
In the sentence "Your visit to the museum was educational", "visit" is the direct object. An indirect object would typically receive the direct object, such as in the sentence "I gave her a gift" where "her" is the indirect object receiving the direct object "gift".
"You" can be either a direct or indirect object: It is a direct object in "I want to kiss you." It is an indirect object in "Henry is going to give you the tickets."
I gave my dog a bone ('my dog' = indirect object; 'a bone' = direct object). They called me a taxi. (taxi - direct object, me- indirect object)
The direct object is "you"; the indirect object (I believe) is "this".
In grammar, technique can serve as either a direct object or an indirect object, depending on how it is used in a sentence. For example, in the sentence "She taught me a new technique," "me" is the indirect object and "a new technique" is the direct object.
This is how you can distinguish/recognize the indirect object from the direct object.The indirect object always goes before the direct object. (direct object is bold / indirect subject is italics)I gave Jim the book.The indirect object can be changed into a phrase beginning with to.I gave the book to Jim
indirect object
"His lawyer" could be a direct object or indirect object, but it could not be an adverb. In "He called his lawyer", "his lawyer" is a direct object. In "He showed his lawyer the contract", "his lawyer" is an indirect object.
indirect object
The direct object is 'the lake'; the indirect object is 'us'.
"Man" is the indirect object.A sentence must have a direct object to contain an indirect object. The direct object is who or whatreceives the action of the verb. Sheila (subject) gave (verb) what? Sweater is the direct object. The indirect object is who or what receives the direct object. Who received the sweater? Man.
Yes. Jack got a taxi for me. direct object - taxi indirect object - me
In this case "money" is the indirect object, "the bank"is the direct object.
