Thanks a lot!

Great article.

I am unable to understand the following difference though

Object: The noun that receives the action of the verb.
For example: "She gave him a book."

Indirect Object: The noun that indirectly receives the action of the verb.
For example: "She gave him a gift."

How is book vs gift relatable to Object vs Indirect Object?

HERE OBEJECT IS HE AND SHE
NOT BOOK AUR GIFT

As the definition says, Noun is a word that names a person, place, thing, object or idea. Here Noun can be anything as of Subject or Object. It is not mandatory to a Noun to be only Subjective. As I mentioned earlier, noun can be both Subject or Object and have different types. E.g.
Object: The noun that receives the action of the verb
For example: "She gave him a book." Here A book is an object noun, she and him is pronoun and gave is verb.
Direct Object: The noun that directly receives the action of the verb.
For example: "He ate an apple." Here An apple is direct object as it comes after verb.
Indirect Object: The noun that indirectly receives the action of the verb.
For example: "She gave him a gift." Here A gift is indirect object noun because it comes after verb and pronoun. And to be direct object it need to comes directly after verb not after pronoun.

Summary
Here the both examples may seems same but it depends on what question is asking for? Don't get confused over same alike examples, what matters is the answer that questions want.

Thankyou. Hope it helps!

very well replied.

Both examples show the use of noun as an indirect object. As there is a pronoun (him) before the nouns.
