Which word in the sentence is the indirect object? My uncle handed me a box filled with old photographs. A. uncle B. box C. me D. handed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well what do you think the answer is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a specific object is an object with a more descriptive adjective in front of it so if you have three objects in the sentence and only two are answer choices which answer choice is more descriptive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the indirect object is "me". Indirect objects tell to or for whom the verb is receiving the direct object object, which in this case is the box.

OpenStudy (frizz):

An indirect object is really a prepositional phrase in which the preposition to or for is not stated but understood. It tells to whom or for whom something is done. The indirect object always comes between the verb and the direct object. Example: She gave me a gift.
