Direct objects receive the action of the verb.
Indirect objects receive the direct object.
Predicate nominatives and predicate adjectives follow a linking verb and rename or describe the subject.
The predicate is what is said about the subject.e.g. In "Joanne went to the shopping mall." ... 'went to the shopping mall' is the predicate.An adjective descibes a noun or pronoun. "Joanne bought some red roses." ... 'red' is an adjective.
A compound indirect object functions exactly the same as a single indirect object:Marcy sold Joe and his little brother three pizzas for her fundraiser.Marcy is the subject. Pizza is the direct object. Who did she sell them to? Joe and his little brother. Joe and brother are both indirect objects.
theoretical example: theoretical physics
pictures , charts and drawing objects
-- the product of the masses of the two objects -- the distance between their centers
Yes, in traditional sentence diagramming, direct object predicate nominatives and predicate adjectives are placed on the right side of the main line. Direct object predicate nominatives follow the direct object, while predicate adjectives follow the linking verb on the right side of the main line.
Yes, an adverb can be a sentence complement. Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs in a sentence to add more information or detail. They often provide answers to questions such as how, when, where, or to what extent an action is performed.
Yes, indefinite pronouns can act as subjects, predicate nominatives, direct objects, indirect objects, objects of a preposition, and appositives in a sentence. They are versatile in that they can replace specific nouns while still maintaining the grammatical function of the original noun they are replacing.
Nouns typically appear as subjects, direct objects, indirect objects, noun appositives, predicate nouns, or as objects of prepositions.
In English, both are in the objective case and both are complements of verbs as part of a complete predicate. (In many other languages, such as Latin and German, there is a separate "dative" case for indirect objects.)
In the subject Language Arts, the focus is on studying the English language, including its structure, grammar, vocabulary, and usage. It also involves analyzing literature, understanding different writing styles, and improving communication skills through reading and writing.
A noun can not be part of a simple predicate, because a simple predicate only includes the verb phrase. The complete predicate, however, may contain nouns, because it includes the verb phrase and any of its objects (Direct and Indirect - which can be nouns and pronouns) and modifiers (which may include adverbial and adjective phrases -- prepositional phrases which have noun or pronoun objects).
make sure that you have more than just the subject noun and the verb. add prepositional phrases, indirect objects, direct objects, adjectives, and adverbs.

Yes there can!
A predicate adjective (also called a subject complement) modifies the subject like other descriptive adjectives, but it must follow a linking verb in a sentence.The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object of the verb is a different form of the subject (Mary is my sister. Mary=sister) or the subject becomes the object (Mary's feet got wet. feet->wet).In the sample sentence, the verb 'are' is the linking verb with a compound object. The object 'height' is a noun and in the prepositional phrase 'in the same grade', also the object of the verb, the object 'grade' is also a noun.So, the objects of the linking verb are nouns, not predicate adjectives. You could mistake the adjectives 'same' as the predicate adjectives, but they are not the objects of the verb, they are describing the objects.
Noun clause as subject: "Whoever arrives first gets the prize." Predicate nominative: "My best friend is whoever you choose." Direct object: "I know where they went." Indirect object: "I will give whoever answers correctly a prize." Object of the participle: "She enjoys painting what she sees." Object of a gerund: "I appreciate your helping me." Appositive: "I consider him a great athlete, the best in the league." Object of infinitive: "She asked me to give whoever needs help a hand."
