What role does the CAPITALIZED pronoun serve in the following sentence? Marcus asked Natalie to bring US the box of supplies. It is the object of a preposition. It is a direct object. It is the subject. It is an indirect object.

OpenStudy (anonymous_user):

Is US supposed to be the pronoun?

OpenStudy (bizzeizzy):

yes

OpenStudy (nobodyssalvation):

The answer is B. Direct objecct The best way to remember a direct object is to remember that it is connected to the verb and answers the question "to/for whom or what." So here the question is reversed. US is the who (direct object) that bring is referring to. Who were they bringing it to? They were bringing it to US.
