Which pronoun best completes the sentence? How is the pronoun used? Did you invite Annie and __________ to your party? A. him; object of a preposition B. he; direct object C. him; direct object D. he; object of a preposition
@bnbaxter @TheSavior
I can help!
ok plz do!
What do you think the answer is? Any choices you can eliminate?
that is my guess for now
@TheSavior giving direct answers is against code of conduct
although, that sounds kind of wrong...
it wasnt an answer, just a guess
And I don't think that it is D. But if you read them out loud some of them don't sound correct
i believe him is correct
@annie12m Yes him is correct
but there are two hims
That leaves A and C.
ok now we need to see if object of a preposition or direct object is right
direct object definition -a noun phrase denoting a person or thing that is the recipient of the action of a transitive verb, for example the dog in Jimmy fed the dog.
whereas object of prepositons- A noun, noun phrase, or pronoun that follows a preposition and completes its meaning. The object of a preposition is in the objective case. A word group made up of a preposition, its object, and any of the object's modifiers is called a prepositional phrase.
Well, object of preposition sentences often have modifiers
Now from this what do you think it is?
@annie12m
in this case the modifier well could be "your party"
im thinking
wait sorry need bathroom, when i come back ill type your user so you know im back
okay.
an object of the preposition is like house in the phrase "in the house"
ok um back @flcon04 @bnbaxter
ex: At the kitchen counter At = preposition; the, kitchen = modifiers; counter = noun or the object of the preposition.
ok i think it is direct
correct it is direct object
ty everyone! ill medal survivor sese suvivor medaled flcon
