Question

explain difference between direct and indirect object​

Answer 1

Answer:

The direct object is the thing that the subject acts upon, so in that last sentence, “cereal” is the direct object; it's the thing Jake ate. An indirect object is an optional part of a sentence; it's the recipient of an action.

Answer 2

Answer:

A direct object answers the question of who(m) or what. In the sentence above, you could determine that 'baseball' is a direct object by asking the question: What did Alice catch? ... An indirect object answers the question of to whom, for whom, or for what. For example: Max pitched Alice the baseball.
