Direct Objects By Jeana West

What is a direct object? A direct object receives the action performed by the subject. The verb used with a direct object is always an action verb.

Ask yourself whom or what? Another way of saying it is that the subject does there verb to the direct object. What? EX: The car hit the tree. To find the direct object, say the subject (car) and verb (hit) and then ask whom or what: The care hit whom or what? Tree answers the question. The direct object is tree.

Direct object tips Must be a noun or pronoun Will never be in a prepositional phrase

Examples Tyler threw the ball at Michael’s head. What is the subject? What is the verb? whom or what is the direct object?

More practice Max held the candy for ransom. Kevin chased Tyler screaming like a banshee. Paul hit Jeana in the head with a golf club. The kids fought the zombies in the backyard.
