Name: 2-6 Types of Verbs – Part 1 Up until now, you have been diagramming the same type of verb (intransitive complete). Now, you will begin diagramming the other verb types. There are four types of verbs. You know all about one type, and now it's time for you to learn about another. Your Mini Lesson on Transitive Active Verbs You will now be learning about transitive active verbs. These verbs have direct objects and indirect objects. Direct objects receive the action of the verb. The direct object in the bubble at the top of the page is ball. The ball is receiving the action kicked. Find the direct object in this sentence: I chopped the wood. Since wood is receiving the action chopped, it is the direct object. Indirect objects receive the direct object. That means that you can only have an indirect object in a sentence that already has a direct object. The indirect object in the bubble at the top of the page is me. The word me is receiving the direct object ball. Find the direct object and the indirect object in this sentence: I gave you the book. Book is receiving the action of the verb gave, so it is the direct object. The word you is receiving the direct object, so it is the indirect object. 2-6 Name: Diagramming Direct Objects Directions: Diagram the following sentences. Use the example for help. Example: The baby kicked the ball. 1. Does your sister love furry cats? 2. The tallest boy on the basketball team dunked the ball. 3. Wow! You will run a marathon on Sunday? 4. My dad videotaped me during the play. 5. The sick English teacher blew her nose.
