A ditransitive verb is a type of verb that requires two objects to complete its meaning, typically a direct object and an indirect object. The direct object is the entity that receives the action of the verb, while the indirect object indicates to whom or for whom the action is performed. For example, in the sentence "She gave her friend a gift," the verb "gave" is ditransitive because it has two objects: "a gift," which is the direct object, and "her friend," which is the indirect object. Ditransitive verbs are important for conveying actions that involve giving, showing, or telling something to someone, allowing for clearer communication about the relationships between the entities involved.
