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.
That depends on how it is used in a sentence. In "I am going to give my shoes a shine," it is an indirect object. In "My shoes are black," it is the subject. In 'Don't step on my blue suede shoes," it is an object of a presposition.
"fund-raiser" is a compound noun, which can form any part of a sentence for which a noun is suitable: subject, direct object or indirect object of an active verb, predicate complement, object of a preposition, or object of a verbal.
The indirect object is girlfriend.The direct object is 'a cup of coffee' (cup).
The word children is the plural form of the noun child. A noun can be the subject of a sentence or clause, the direct or indirect object of a verb, or the object of a preposition. Examples: Direct object: She brought the children to the picnic. Indirect object: She made the children some sandwiches. Object of the preposition: She served the sandwiches to the children.
You would be the indirect object. This is because the subject, book, is giving hours of fun, making that the direct object. You is receiving the object, therefore it is the indirect object.
A compound indirect object is more than one indirect object. "We gave Martha and Bob many presents." ("presents" is the direct object, "Martha and Bob" is the compound indirect object)
Yes, indirect objects can be compound. This means that a single indirect object in a sentence can refer to multiple recipients or targets of the action. For example, in the sentence "She gave Tim and Sara a book," "Tim and Sara" is a compound indirect object receiving the book from the subject.
A direct or indirect object is a part of a sentence. A single word in isolation is neither a direct or indirect object. However, most nouns can be used in a sentence as either a direct or indirect object.
Yes, for example: I bought Daisy and Masie new outfits and matching shoe. Direct objects: new outfits, matching shoes. Indirect objects: Daisy, Maisie
The same objective pronouns are used whether for the direct or indirect object. Example:She told me a story. The word "me" is an indirect object pronoun; the direct object is the noun story.
[object Object]
Any noun can function as an indirect object. A noun is used as the subject of a sentence or a clause, and as the object of a verb or a preposition. Example sentence for the noun 'president' as indirect object: The minister brought the president some bad news. (the direct object is 'news', the indirect object is 'president')
Yes. Marcy sold Joe and his little brother three pizzas for her fundraiser. Marcy is the subject. Pizza is the direct object, because Marcy is selling the pizza's "directly." Who did she sell them to? Joe and his little brother. Thus, Joe and brother are the indirect objects.
The noun 'story' can be used for any function of a noun, the subject of a sentence, the direct object or indirect object of a verb, and the object of a preposition. Examples: Subject: The story was a good one. Direct object: Grandma told a story of her childhood. Indirect object: What is the name of the story? (object of the preposition 'of')
It's unusual for a number to be used as an indirect object, but it can be done. For example, "Give the three of them the answer to question #7." In that sentence, "three" is the indirect object.
An abstract noun is used as an indirect object exactly the same as a concrete noun or a pronoun is used as an indirect object. Examples:We can have the melon for breakfast.He will be here in an hour.The teacher like my report on civil rights.
It might be, but you can't tell without seeing how it is used in the sentence. Us is an object, but it can be either an indirect object or a direct object, depending on context. For example, in "Tell us a story", us is an indirect object. But in "They robbed us", us is a direct object.
