Question

Why are the italicized pronouns used correctly in the sentence below? Select all that apply.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answers are:

- Her is the direct object of the action verb ask.

- Me is the object of the preposition for.

Explanation:

Let's go through all of the options:

1. this can't be correct because the word her is a pronoun, and not a noun

2. this is correct because a direct object gives the answer to the question who(m)? Here, the question would be - Whom did you ask? and the answer would be Amelia and her.

3. this is correct because there is a preposition for in this sentence and it demands an object to follow it; here, that object are the pronouns you and me

4. this can't be correct because Amelia and me aren't the same person so Amelia can't be the antecedent for me
