Direct Objects

How to Find a Direct Object 1. Find action verb 2. Ask “who?” or “what?” after the action verb One of the questions will be answered if there is a direct object. Example: Mary sang a song. 1. The action is “sang.” 2. Sang who? Sang what? The second question is answered. The answer “song” is my direct object.

How to Find a Direct Object Try another one: Example: We visited Virginia Beach. 1. The action verb is “visited.” 2. Visted who? Visted what? The second question is answered. That means that “Virginia Beach” is my direct object.

How to Find a Direct Object Direct objects can also be compound. If they are compound, there will be a conjunction such as “and,” “but,” or “or” connecting the two compounds. Example: We saw Mary and Mark at the zoo. 1. The action verb is “saw.” 2. Saw who? Saw what? The first question is answered. That means that both Mary, Mark are direct objects.

How to find Direct Objects In a question, sentence parts are inverted. That means they are not in their usual location. In a question, one of two things may happen: 1. The direct object may appear before the verb 2. The direct object may be an interrogative pronoun that takes the place of the actual direct object. (The interrogative pronouns are who, whom, whose, which, and what.)

How to Find Direct Objects Example: DO HV S MV Which coat did you bring to school? 1. The action verb is did bring. 2. Did bring who? Did bring what? The answer is coat; therefore it is the direct object.

How to Find a Direct Object Example: DO HV S MV What did you bring to the party? 1. The action verb is did bring. 2. Did bring who? Did bring what? We don’t know what was brought. However, there is an interrogative pronoun that could have taken the place of what was brought. That interrogative pronoun is the direct object.
