When I got home, I showed my MOM the perfect score I received on my midterm exam. What is the function of the capitalized word in the sentence?

Answer: The function of the capitalized word in the sentence shown above is the indirect object. For an indirect object to appear, the sentence must first have a direct object.

I hope it helps, Regards.

Answer 2

The word mom in the sentence is the Indirect Object. It answers the question to whom was something done. The perfect score received is the direct object, while I is the subject.
