Yes, a mall can be considered an object, but it's more accurately described as a complex structure or building designed for commercial purposes. It typically houses various retail stores, restaurants, and entertainment facilities. While it is a physical entity, a mall also represents a social and economic hub for community interaction and commerce.
A pronoun in the objective case function as the object of a verb or a preposition.The objective pronouns are:you, it, me, us, him, her, them, whom.Examples:We saw him at the mall. (object of the verb)We spoke to him at the mall. (object of the preposition)
Colloquially you can use either, but if you were to say 'in the mall' you would likely be referring to an object. There's a bookstore in the mall. If you said 'at the mall', you would presumably be referring to a person. Where is John? He's at the mall with his girlfriend. Of course, 'mall' can mean the physical building complex, in which case anything can be 'in' the mall, but 'at the mall would almost always refer to a person.
In that example, the verb is intransitive. There is no direct object.
There is no preposition. The word "inside" is an adverb, because it has no object. In the sentence "I like playing video games inside the mall" the word inside becomes a preposition, with the object mall.
The corresponding object pronoun for the subject pronoun 'he' is him. Example:Jeffrey was at the mall. He was trying on shoes, so I sat down next to him.
She decided to drive us to the mall after dinner.
The verb "went" in this context is intransitive because it does not require a direct object to make sense. It stands alone to convey the action of moving or traveling to the mall without needing an object to complete the action.
A noun or pronoun in the objective case is a word that functions as the object of a verb or a preposition. Examples:noun: We likewine afterdinner. (wine is the object of the verb 'like'; dinner is the object of the preposition 'after')pronoun: John saw herat the mall with them. (her is the object of the verb 'saw'; them is the object of the preposition 'with')
It depends. Are you and John the object or are you the subject? If the two of you are the subject, it is John and I (John and I are going to the mall.) If the two of you are the object, it is John and me (You should come with John and me.) If you are fluent in English, a simple test is to toss John out of the sentence. Does 'Me am going to the mall,' sound right? How about 'You should come with I.' Once you determine that 'I am going to the mall' or 'You should come with me' you then invite John back into his proper place in the sentence and when you get to the mall, treat him to lunch to make up for tossing him out.
The personal pronoun 'me' is used to take the place of a singular noun (name) or pronoun for the person speaking as the object of a verb or a preposition.Examples:The boss called me to authorize the expense. (direct object of the verb 'called')Mom made me some cookies. (indirect object of the verb 'made')James is going to the mall with me. (object of the preposition 'with')The corresponding singular, personal pronoun that is used as a subject is I.Example: I called James to go to the mall with me.
