Direct object: word in a sentence referring to the person or thing receiving the action The steps: 1) Find the verb 2) Is it an action verb? 3) Is the verb’s action happening to someone or something?
Transitive Verb: An action verb with a direct object Magister loves baseball. Intransitive Verb: An action verb without a direct object Magister often excitedly jumps in Latin class.
NB: A prepositional phrase is NOT a direct object, no matter what!Magister jumps on the floor.The presence of the word “on” in front of “the floor” makes it so that “floor” cannot be the direct object.
In Latin, we usually show that something is the direct object by changing the ending, not the word order.In English, we usually show that something is the direct object by changing the word order, not the ending.
In Latin, we show the direct object by changing the ending to “-am” for a feminine noun or “-um” for a masucline noun. This is called the Accusative Case.
Case ReviewNominative (subject, complement)Genitive (possessive)Accusative (direct object)
