Object Pronouns
An object pronoun is a noun, noun phrase or pronoun that refers to a person or thing
that is affected by the action of the verb (called the direct object), or that the action is
done to or for (called the indirect object).
Object pronouns in English take the objective case, sometimes called the object
case. For example, the English object pronoun me is found in “They see me” (direct
object), “He’s giving me my book” (indirect object), and “Sit with me” (object of a
preposition).
