1[blank_start]Direct Object[blank_end]: As you already know, the subject of a sentence is the noun or pronoun that is doing the action of the verb. A word that receives the action of its verb is called the direct object. Since it is one of the functions of a noun, the direct object is always a noun or pronoun. It answers the question What? or Whom? After an action verb. Although a sentence must contain a subject, not all sentences contain direct objects.
