A verb with a direct object is a transitive verb. It requires an object to complete its meaning in a sentence. For example, in the sentence "I ate the apple," the verb "ate" is transitive, and "apple" is the direct object of the verb.
no a direct object will always be after the verb.
The part of a sentence that receives the action expressed by the verb is called the object. It can be a direct object, which directly receives the action, or an indirect object, which receives the action indirectly.
The direct object of a sentence takes the action of the verb.
The verb is "like" The direct object is "home"
A direct object follows a transitive verb.
The direct object is the word that receives the action of the verb. Examples:The dog chased the cat. ('cat' is the direct object of the verb 'chased')The cat caught a mouse. ('mouse' is the direct object of the verb 'caught')Who ate the cookies? ('cookies' is the direct object of the verb 'ate')I gave the cake to him. ('cake' is the direct object, it directly receives the action of the verb 'gave'; him is the indirect object, object of the preposition 'to')I gave the dog a bone. ('bone' is the direct object of the verb 'gave'; 'dog' is the indirect object)
