Subject object #2 (permalink) Sat Feb 18, 2006 10:19 am   Subject object
 

Hi,

Simply put, the subject is usually the word that does something and the object is the word receiving what is done. In the sentence:

Quote:
This is the teacher ......... told me my son has been misbehaving in class.

teacher is the subject, told is the verb and the word receiving what is done/told is me, which is the object. In this sntence the missing pronoun is who.
