Many people get confused or confused in identifying Subjects, Objects, and Verbs in English. They do not understand who is the subject, who is the verb, and who is the object. Therefore, before making the sentence it is necessary to be aware of some such important points.
Subject (Doer) - In any sentence which is about doing the action. It is called Subject.
Verb - such a word that denotes the action of the doer is known as a verb.
Direct objects - can be identified by what and indirect objects can be recognized by whom.
The following formats help you to understand how these components work in the sentence,
Subj + verb + direct object (what).
Ex, she reads a book, and now you ask yourself what then you get the answer book, so the book is known as direct objects.
Subj + verb + indirect object (whom).
Ex, I make you laugh.
In this sentence ask yourself from whom then you get the answer you, it means you, is known as an indirect object.
Ex, I teach you English every day.
But in this sentence English works direct object while "you", works as an indirect object.
Now, be aware of yourself who can be subject,
Four parts of speech, work as a subject or subjective case.
(A) A Noun can be a subject,
Students, girls, Ram, Geeta, books, The times of India, etc.
(B) pronoun acts as a subject,
I, we, you, he, she, it, they,
(C) Noun + Adjective work as a subject,
