A direct object of a verb is the thing being acted upon

OpenStudy (anonymous):

an indirect object precedes the direct object and tell to whom or for whom the action of the verb is done

OpenStudy (sierra!):

what about a predicate nominative

@PaulaLovesSchool13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A predicate nominative or predicate noun completes a linking verb and renames the subject. It is a complement or completer because it completes the verb. Predicate nominatives complete only linking verbs. The linking verbs include the following: the helping verbs is, am, are, was, were, be, being, and been; the sense verbs look, taste, smell, feel, and sound; and verbs like become, seem, appear, grow, continue, stay, and turn.
