dobj
: direct object
The direct object of a verb is the noun phrase that denotes the entity acted upon. Most often the direct object is in the accusative case but there are verbs that require their objects be in other cases (except for nominative and vocative).
Accusative example:
Genitive example:
Dative example:
Instrumental example:
In general, if there is just one object, it should be labeled dobj
,
regardless of the morphological case or semantic role that it bears. If there are two or more
objects, one of them should be dobj
and the others should be
iobj. In such cases it is necessary to decide what is the most
directly affected object (patient). The one exception is when there is a clausal complement. Then the clausal complement is regarded as a “clausal direct object” and an object nominal will be an iobj.
