• In simple sentences the object is easy to see:
She hit him.
They took the money.
• Some verbs, however, have two objects:
She gave me the book. ( = she gave the book to me)
the book is the real object of this sentence. It tells us what she gave.This is the direct object (Direct object)
me is the indirect object (Indirect object)
FORM
• verb + direct object + to or for + indirect object:

D.O. the money a present |
to for
|
I.O. him. your mother. |
a) Some common verbs Taking to: bring, give, lend, pay, promise, send,
show, take, tell.
