officer the form with the receipts.

Customer: I give the form to the Customs when I leave Britain?

Clerk: That's right. They'll give you one copy back and keep one themselves.

Customer: Uh-huh.

Clerk: Now I'll give you this envelope. You send the copy back to us in the

envelope.

Customer: I post it to you.

Clerk: That's right.

Customer: And how do I get the money?

Clerk: Oh, we send you a cheque. We'll send it off to you straight away.

1 Two objects

When the verb has two objects, the first is the indirect object and the second is the

direct object.

Indirect object Direct object

You give the customs officer the form.

We send you a cheque.

The man bought the woman a diamond ring.

I can reserve you a seat.

Here the indirect object refers to the person receiving something, and the direct

object refers to the thing that is given.

2 Object + adverbial

Instead of an indirect object, we can use a prepositional phrase with to or for.

Direct object

Prepositional

phrase


I give the form to the Customs.

You send the copy to us.

The man bought a diamond ring for the woman.

I can reserve a seat for you.

The adverbial comes after the object.

 Give, send etc

3 Which pattern?

In a clause with give, send etc, there is a choice of pattern between give the customs

officer the form and give the form to the customs officer. The choice depends on

what information is new. The new information goes at the end of the clause.



I'll give you this envelope.

In the conversation Claiming back tax, this envelope is the point of interest, the

new information, so it comes at the end.

Compare the patterns in these sentences.



He left his children five million pounds.

(The amount of money is the point of interest.)



He left all his money to a dog's home.

(Who receives the money is the point of interest.)

NOTE

a The adverbial or indirect object is often necessary to complete the meaning.



He handed the receipt to the customer.

But sometimes it is not necessary to mention the person receiving something.



You'll have to show your ticket on the train.

(It is obvious that you show it to the ticket inspector.)
