grammar learning
0 II'd be one to admit grammar is never my strong suit but I'm always eager to learn. 02 br

00 I've read thoroughly the thread titled "grammar exercise" regarding noun clause/subordinate clause used as adjective, adverb, indirect object and so forth. I really had to strain my brain to understand it all and I have tons of questions to ask under the same thread but felt that it was not my place to post my questions there. 02 br
02 br
00 I just have a few questions to start off: 02 br
02 br
00 Using the example I'm giving below, could somebody identify indirect object for me? and likewise, is there such a thing as "direct object" then? 02 br
02 br
00 "She gave the clerk 50 dollars." 02 br
02 br
00 Thank you 02 br

00 Nothing spins my head faster than English Gramar. It seems the more I look into it, the more confused I am about the language. The names for every part or function of every part in a sentence can easily overwhelm me, and my brain would stop to function normal
