Read the sentence. Thomas Jefferson delivered the Continental Congress a draft of the Declaration of Independence. Which is the indirect object of the sentence? Thomas Jefferson Continental Congress draft Declaration of Independence
I know the answer, but what do you think it is?
C
? @thatgirlwhonooneknows
heres the deffinition of indirect object, a noun phrase referring to someone or something that is affected by the action of a transitive verb (typically as a recipient), but is not the primary object (e.g., him in give him the book ).
Thomas Jefferson delivered what ? A draft. Draft is your direct object. He delivered a draft to who ? He delivered it to the Continental Congress. That is your indirect object. Just remember, you cannot have a indirect object if you do not have a direct object. Answer is Continental Congress (indirect object)
so the answer would be B
because he delivered it to the continental congress
thank you for the medals! Is there anything else i can help you with?
