उत्तर
Direct and indirect - An object is a word, phrase, or clause that shows the person, thing, etc. affected by the action of the verb.
The underlined words or phrases in the following sentences are objects.
- Mother drives a scooter.
- He gave me a pen.
There are two types of object: direct and indirect. The direct object is directly affected by the action.
For example, in sentence 2 above, ‘a pen’ is a direct object. An indirect object refers to the person or a thing to whom/for whom the action is done. In sentence 2 above, ‘me’ is an indirect object.
