Parts of a Sentence

              A sentence is made up of:
                 • Subject: A subject is a noun that refers to a person, place or thing.
                 • Verb: It is the action done by the subject.
                 • Object: It is a person, place or thing that receives an action and gets affected.



                        Subject      +            Verb           +         Object        =          Sentence



              For example:
              He drove a brand new car.
              Subject: He                      Verb: drove   Object: new car

              Types of Objects
              There are two types of objects which are the basic building blocks of any sentence. These are:
                 • Direct Objects: Direct objects come after a verb and are directly ‘acted on’ by the verb. It answers the question
                "what?" or "who?". For example:

                She sang on Annual day.
                Peter doesn't like Maths.
                 • Indirect Objects: Indirect object is the recipient of the direct object. It answers the question "to whom?", "for
                whom?". For example:
                She made a cake for her mother’s birthday.

                He wrote a letter to his friend.
