Identify the direct and indirect objects of the underlined word in the following sentence
I gave her my books

hintHint:

A direct object is a word/ noun phrase/pronoun that receives the action of a verb
An indirect object is the noun/noun phrase/pronoun 'to whom' or  'for whom' the action is done.

The correct answer is: Direct object.


    From the given sentence, 'books' can be identified as a direct object, as books receive the action of the verb - 'gave'. ( It can simply answer the question of 'what did I give ' ?)
    'Her' can be identified as an indirect object as the action of 'giving' is done for 'her'
