What is a direct object pronoun?

Pronouns (words that stand in for nouns) can have different forms depending on whether they are acting as a subject (e.g., “I,” “we,” “they”) or an object (e.g., “me,” “us,” “them”).

When a pronoun is used as the direct object of a sentence, the object form is always used (e.g., “Martin sent them”).

The most common object pronouns in English are “me,” “you,” “us,” “him,” “her,” “it,” and “them.”
