Well, you need to find the definitions of an indirect pronoun, and a direct pronoun. Do you know the difference between the two? c:

OpenStudy (thecuteone25):

yes,An indirect object is really a prepositional phrase in which the preposition to or for is not stated but understood.

OpenStudy (thecuteone25):

A direct object is a noun or pronoun that receives the action of a verb in a sentence.

OpenStudy (thecuteone25):

A preposition is a word governing, and usually preceding, a noun or pronoun and expressing a relation to another word or element in the clause, as in “the man on the platform,” “she arrived after dinner,” “what did you do it for ?”

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

Great! Now which one did you think it was? c:

OpenStudy (chantysquirrel1129**):

Remember, The indirect object asks for "who?" and the direct object asks for "what was affected?"
