Fan and Medal!!! I still do not get indirect or direct help me these question are mostly the same as yesterday because I dont get it so dont feel bad if you already helped me with this question
Which personal pronoun correctly completes the sentence? What is its use? Even though the Millers knew it would erupt, Old Faithful's geyser surprised ___________ every time. A. they; indirect object B. them; direct object C. they; direct object D. them; indirect object
Well, we can cross A and C. They wouldn't make sense. Now we have to choose between B and D.
okay i got that part but how do you know if it is indirect or direct ?:)
Direct object is the the thing being acted upon or receiving the action in a sentence.
The easiest way: Look for the verb and ask who or what EXAMPLE: I fed my dog. Fed is the dog. I fed what? My dog, so dog is the D.O.
okay
subject + verb +who or what (will answer the direct object.)
I meant fed is the verb :)
i thnk it is b
i think so too
does everyone here agree on b
Yeah.
:) thanks you guys
I can explain indirect objects too
Any more .?
yeah i have more
Jim built his granddaughter a sandcastle on the beach. Jim (subject)+ built (verb) (who or what did jim built) = Sand castle (direct object) now who or what is the sand castle going to or for =granddaughter (indirect object)
i will tag you on them okay
