Types of Objects
              The object in a sentence can be either direct or indirect. Let us understand both.
                                  Direct object     •   a noun or pronoun receiving the action
                                                    •   generally preceded by the verb
                                                    •   does not depend on the indirect object
                                  Indirect Object   •   a noun/pronoun that receives the direct object
                                                    •   generally preceded by prepositions
                                                    •   depends on the direct object
              Let us understand using an example:


                                         My brother gave new shoes to his friend.



                                                          Direct object      Indirect object

              We use both active and passive sentences while speaking. How to distinguish between the two?
