Pt 5 Direct Objects 1
The
word that receives the action of a verb is called the Direct Object.
First, find the subject; next, find the verb. Then ask whom or what
after the verb. The answer will be the Direct Object.
Maria bought six oranges. Who
or What are we talking about? Maria is the subject.
What was Maria doing? Bought is the verb.
Maria bought whom or what? Oranges
is the Direct Object.
Directions:
For each sentence, write the SUBJECT, VERB, and the DIRECT OBJECT. Not every
sentence will have a D.O.
Watch
out! The D.O. answers “whom” or “what” – not “how.”
