Homework:
Direct object worksheet/Harrison vocabulary
Direct object
• Some sentences only need a Subject and Verb to be a
complete thought.
The basic pattern is S-V for these sentences.
• Other sentences require additional words, called
complements, to express a complete thought. The basic
pattern is S-V-DO for these sentences.
• A direct object is a noun or pronoun that gives meaning to
the subject and verb of the sentence. There are two kinds of
objects within sentence: direct and indirect objects.
• A direct object receives the action of a verb (after action
verbs).
– Ex: Daniel fixes computers.
A direct answers the question “Whom?” or “What?”
Transitive and intransitive verbs
• Depending on the type of object they take,
verbs may be transitive or intransitive.
• A transitive verb is incomplete without a
direct object:
Ex: Jenn won the match.
Subject verb
Direct Object
Intransitive- no direct object needed for the
complete thought
Ex: Jenn won yesterday.
Subject verb
II. Sometimes a direct object is followed by an
indirect object. An indirect object ist he noun or
pronoun for which the action is done.
Daniel fixes computers for his family.
An indirect object comes between the action
verb and the direct object and answers the
question “To whom?” or “For whom?” It is
always a noun or pronoun and never appears by
itself without a direct object.

•
The following are two exceptions to this normal word
order:
1. Normal word order is reversed to add emphasis.
Over the waves soared the pelican.
2. In sentences with expletives, the subject generally comes
after the predicate. (An expletive is a word used to
introduce or fill out a sentence. There and it are
sometimes used as expletives.)
There are three letters in the mailbox.
Voice of verbs
• The voice of a verb indicates whether the subject performs the
action or is acted upon. An action verb is in the active voice
when the verb’s subject performs the action. An action verb is in
the passive voice when its action is performed on the subject.
• Examples:
– ACTIVE VOICE: Derek took the pictures.
– PASSIVE VOICE: The pictures were taken by Derek.
• You form the passive voice by using a form of the auxiliary verb
be with the past participle of a verb. Active voice is usually a
stronger way of expressing what you want to say. Use the
passive voice if you do not want to all attention to the performer
of the action or if you do not know the performer.
– The eyeglasses were broken. [It may not matter who broke
them.]
– The flag has been raised. [You may not know who raised it.]

Prepositions
1. Preposition (Prep) – a relationship word followed
by its object
2. A Preposition is always followed by an object of
the preposition (noun or pronoun) to form a
prepositional phrase. To find the object of the
prep., say the prep and then ‘what?’ or ‘whom?’
The answer will be a noun or pronoun
3. A prepositional phrase begins with a prep, ends
with an object of the prep, and includes all the
words in between.
4. If a word on the prep list is NOT FOLLOWED BY AN
OBJECT IT IS NOT BEING USED AS A PREPOSITION.
It is probably being used as an adverb.
One big grammar fact you can
depend on:
• The subject , verb, direct
object and/or indirect object
of the sentence is NEVER
found in a prepositional
phrase

From webMD
• Vitamin D is a vitamin. It can be found in small
amounts in a few foods, including fatty fish
such as herring, mackerel, sardines and tuna.
To make vitamin D more available, it is added
to dairy products, juices, and cereals that are
then said to be “fortified with vitamin D.” But
most vitamin D – 80% to 90% of what the
body gets – is obtained through exposure to
sunlight.
http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-929vitamin%20d.aspx?activeIngredientId=929&activeIngredientName=vitamin%20d
• Vitamin D is used for preventing and treating
rickets, a disease that is caused by not having
enough vitamin D. Vitamin D is also used for treating
weak bones (osteoporosis), bone pain, bone loss in
people with a condition called hyperparathyroidism,
and an inherited disease (osteogenesis imperfecta) in
which the bones are especially brittle and easily
broken. It is also used for preventing falls and
fractures in people at risk for osteoporosis, and
preventing low calcium and bone loss (renal
osteodystrophy) in people with kidney failure.
