Is dancer a direct object indirect or predicate nominative?

The answer depends on the sentence. Here's how to figure it out:

Direct Object:

* What or Whom does the verb act upon?

* Example: "She became a dancer." Here, "dancer" is the direct object because it receives the action of "became."

Indirect Object:

* To whom or for whom is the action done?

* Example: "He gave the dancer a rose." Here, "dancer" is the indirect object because the rose is given to the dancer.

Predicate Nominative:

* Renames the subject.

* Example: "My sister is a dancer." Here, "dancer" renames the subject "sister."

To figure out the function of "dancer" in a sentence, you need to look at the complete sentence and its structure.
