A Grammar Lesson: Direct and Indirect Objects. An object is the part of a sentence that gives meaning to the subjectâs action of the verb. Alice caught the baseball. A direct object answers the question of who(m) or what.
Â· Intransitive verb-does not require a direct object to complete its meaning. The action of the verb does not pass over (transire) to another person or thing. Thus, sum (I am), sto (I stand), curro (I run), cado (I am falling), sol lucet (the sun is shining) would all be nonsensical if given a direct object.
