Direct Objects TaMyria Levy 9/28/15 6B/A2

 A direct object will always follow a transitive verb (a type of action verb). Direct objects can be nouns, pronouns, phrases, or clauses. Direct Objects:

 You can easily remember how to find direct objects by using this formula:  Subject + Verb + Who? Or What? = Direct Object Formula:

 Shumel hates the guards. Shumel = Subject; Hates = Verb. Shumel hates who? The guards = Direct Object  Gretel often surveyed her maps. Gretel = Subject; Surveyed = Action Verbs. Gretel surveyed what? Her maps = Direct Object Examples:

 Direct objects can also follow verbals. Verbals are infinitives, gerunds, and participles. Direct Objects

 Here’s another formula just in case the direct object follows a verbal:  Verbal + What? Or Who? = Direct Object Formula:

 Using subject pronouns as direct objects. Direct objects are objects, always remember to use the objective form of the pronoun when you need a direct object.  Mistaking a direct object for a subject complement. Only action verbs can have direct objects. If the verb is linking, then the word that answers the what? Or who? Question is a subject complement. Common Mistakes:

 Subject Complement Example:  Bruno was happy to see Shumel. Bruno = Subject; Was = Linking verb. Bruno was what? Happy = Subject Complement  Direct Object Example:  Bruno strengthened his friendship with Shumel. Bruno = Subject; Strengthened = Action Verb. Bruno strengthened what? His friendship with Shumel = Direct Object Examples:

 Remember to always use those formulas to find the Direct Object, and don’t make simple mistakes. Good luck! Conclusion:
