Answer 1

An object in grammar is a sentence element and part of the sentence predicate. It denotes somebody or something involved in the subject's "performance" of the verb. As an example, the following sentence is given:

In the sentence "Bobby kicked the ball", "ball" is the object.

"Bobby" is the subject, the doer or performer, while "kick" is the action, and "ball" is the object involved in the action.

The main verb in the sentence determines whether there can or must be objects in the sentence, and if so how many and of what type. In many languages, however, including English, the same verb can allow multiple different structures; for example, "Bobby kicked", "Bobby kicked the ball", and "Bobby kicked me the ball" are all valid English sentences.

Types of object
Objects fall into three classes: direct objects, prepositional objects, and non-prepositional indirect objects. An indirect object is the recipient of the direct object, or an otherwise affected participant in the event. For example, if three sentences are considered:

In "We threw knives", knives is the direct object of the verb threw.
In "We listened to the radio", the radio is the object of the preposition to, and the prepositional object of the verb listened.
In "They sent him a postcard", him is the (non-prepositional) indirect object of the verb sent (which uses a double-object construction).
In many languages, including German, Latin, and Classical Arabic, objects can change form slightly (decline) to indicate what kind of object they are (their case). This does not happen in English (though a few English pronouns do have separate subject and object forms); rather, the type of object is indicated strictly by word order.


Forms of object
An object may take any of a number of forms, all of them nominal in some sense. Common forms include:

A noun or noun phrase, as in "I remembered her advice."
An infinitive or infinitival clause, as in "I remembered to eat."
A gerund or gerund phrase, as in "I remembered being there."
A declarative content clause, as in "I remembered that he was blond."
An interrogative content clause, as in "I remembered why she had left."
A fused relative clause, as in "I remembered what she wanted me to."

Answer 2

Direct object: object that receives the direct object of the verb
Indirect object: An object indirectly affected by the action of a verb, as me in Sing me a song and turtles in He feeds turtles lettuce
Object: A noun, pronoun, or noun phrase that receives or is affected by the action of a verb within a sentence.
Preposition: A word or phrase placed typically before a substantive and indicating the relation of that substantive to a verb, an adjective, or another substantive, as English at, by, with, from, and in regard to.
Appositive:A word or phrase that is in apposition
Adverbial:Of, relating to, or being an adverb.
Cognate: a word is cognate with another if both derive from the same word in an ancestral language
