Direct objects require transitive verbs, which transfer the action to the object directly. Indirect objects require ditransitive verbs, which transfer the action to the object indirectly through the indirect object.


What is the direct object of The Criminal is adversary to the policeman?

There is no direct object. There are two types of verbs: action verbs and being verbs. Being verbs are verbs of being, they are words like "is", "am", "was", "be", and their variations, like "have been", etc. They don't have direct objects. Action verbs are all the other words, that do have actions. The object of that action is the direct object. So, if the verb is making a statement of being, then there is no direct object, and the verb is a verb of being, like "is".
