How is the underlined pronoun used in the sentence?


I received a five-page letter from him in the mail yesterday.

A.
direct object

B.
object of a preposition

C.
indirect object

Respuesta :

The pronoun here is "him" and it's in the phrase "from him". It's neither a direct object (which is "a five-page letter" here) nor an indirect object (which would be "to someone).

It's following a preposition "from" so the correct answer is B- oobject of a preposition.
