Answer:

Subject: Dianna

Direct object: George

Indirect object: cold shoulder

Verb: gave a cold shoulder

Subject complement: George

Object complement: a cold shoulder

prepositional phrases: at the party

Step-by-step explanation:

The subject is the main person or thing in the sentence: Dianna.

The direct object is what/who the action is affecting: George.

The indirect object is the recipient of the direct object. Basically whichever comes first in the sentence is direct(George) and what comes next is indirect(cold shoulder.)

The verb is an action. "Giving someone the cold shoulder" means ignoring someone because you don't like them, which all girls in my life do to me.

Subject complements complete the action of a linking verb and object complements rename or redefine something in the sentence(giving George the cold shoulder)

A prepositional phrase is a preposition and a noun(person, place, or thing). The preposition just shows the relationship between where one thing is (at, in, on, at, through, across, above, over, up, down, to, with, by, beside, beneath, in front of, between, among). It's at the party.

I hope this helps! :)
