Objects

Hi.

I haven't seen anything of Martin lately.

Is Martin an indirect object and anything a direct one or is anything of Martin a direct object in the sentence?

Thank you.

Anonymous Is Martin an indirect object No. Anonymous is 'anything of Martin' a direct object in the sentence? I would limit the DO to 'anything'.
