OOh Grammar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think number 1 is indirect.

OpenStudy (ashleyisakitty):

Yes, the ** indicates which choices I think are correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh ok

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

the first one would be "from an unknown place"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The first one is right.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

here's how you break it down first identify the direct object 1. Someone sent Ed and me a text from an unknown place. (me) can be re-written into 1. Someone sent a text. someone is the subject, sent is the verb (transitive) and a text is the direct object

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

1. Someone sent Ed and me a text from an unknown place. ED and ME would be then your indirect object from definition, an indirect object is a noun or pronoun that receives the direct object

OpenStudy (ashleyisakitty):

Right. Thats what I thought.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

that is all you need to know :) and everything else should be a piece of cake

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The second one is also right, but the third one is wrong hun. :)

OpenStudy (ashleyisakitty):
