In order to identify the underlined words in the sentences as direct object, indirect object, predicate noun, or predicate adjective, you need to understand the grammatical roles of each type of word.
1. "I sent HER an EMAIL yesterday to confirm the date of the meeting."
In this sentence, "HER" is the indirect object. It receives the action of the verb "sent." "An EMAIL" is the direct object, as it receives the action of the verb indirectly through the indirect object.
2. "Elton John is a pop ICON."
In this sentence, "a pop ICON" is the predicate noun. It renames the subject "Elton John" and describes what he is.
3. "She seemed HONEST but I was deceived."
In this sentence, "HONEST" is the predicate adjective. It describes the subject "She" and how she seemed.
4. "Give ME a break."
In this sentence, "ME" is the indirect object. It receives the action of the verb "Give." "A break" is the direct object, as it receives the action of the verb indirectly through the indirect object.
To summarize:
- Sentence 1: HER (indirect object), an EMAIL (direct object)
- Sentence 2: ICON (predicate noun)
- Sentence 3: HONEST (predicate adjective)
- Sentence 4: ME (indirect object), a break (direct object)
