TRANSITIVE ACTIVE VERBS ONE OF THE FOUR TYPES OF VERBS • Action verbs that transfer their action to someone or something called a direct object. • The child kicked the ball • The direct object in that sentence is ball. The ball is receiving the action of kicked. It is what is being kicked.
• Find the direct object in the following sentence:
• I ate the melon. • Since melon is receiving the action of ate, it is the direct object. It is being eaten. DIRECT OBJECTS • Nouns that receive the action of certain kinds of verbs (transitive active verbs). • To find the direct object, ask the following question:What/Whom did the (subject) (verb)? • Tasia kicked the ball. • Megan teaches yoga. • The frog ate a fly. • The direct object in the first sentence is ball. It is what is being kicked. • The ball is what (Tasia) (kicked). • What is the direct object in the third sentence? INDIRECT OBJECT • Nouns (or pronouns) that tell us for whom/what or to whom/what the action of a transitive active verb is done. • They are indirectly affected by the action of the verb. • Megan kicked Tasia the ball • Moises poured me juice • Tasia is an IO. It is receiving the direct object (ball). • Me is an IO. It is receiving the direct object (juice)
