When the servers arrived, Zach gave them the information on today's specials
I am not sure of the direct object of the main clause
I think it is "information" and the indirest object is the specials
You're right about the direct object.
The indirect object answers "to whom" after the verb. Therefore, the indirect object is "them."
The object of the preposition "on" is "specials."

Thanks
You're welcome.
To determine the direct object and indirect object in a sentence, you need to identify the action verb and then analyze the structure of the sentence.
In the given sentence, the action verb is "gave." Let's break down the sentence:
Subject: Zach
Verb: gave
Now, let's see what Zach gave:
Direct object: The information on today's specials
Indirect object: Not mentioned in the sentence
In this case, the direct object is "the information on today's specials." There is no indirect object in the sentence because it does not specify whom or what the information was given to.
