English Double object verbs

Hello English learners! 😃

In today's lesson, we're going to study English verbs that can have two objects.

In English, some verbs have 2 objects:

Subject	Verb	Indirect object	Direct object
She	brought	her father	some fruits.
My husband	sent	her	a letter
She	cooked	all her friends	a delicious cake.

These clauses have the following structure:

VERB + NOUN (indirect object) + NOUN (direct object)
