2. Players wear helmets and pads for protection. (direct objects, predicate nouns): Players wear both helmets and pads for protection.

Just wanna see if i got the hang of it.
Ms. Sue
Are helmets, pads direct objects or predicate nouns?
objects
wait i mean predicate nouns
Ms. Sue
How can you tell?
wait nvmmmm its an object, I can tell its a object because its says "Players wear"
Ms. Sue
Right. Helmets and pads do NOT mean the same as the subject. Therefore they are direct objects. They tell what the players wear. They take the action of the verb.

Thanks Ms.sue!!
Ms. Sue
