Kerry: You changed the adjective rather than the object noun;-)
Carole: Keep the changes already made. You did well to correct the direct object. Then, make one correction only--let someone else make the next one before you try again;-)The changes should be cumulative. However, you did make good changes.
Milijana: Good.
Cindy: You changed the verb rather than the direct object noun;-)
Not really sure what a direct object noun is then..

Cindy: In the original sentence, "groceries" is the direct object of the verb. It answers the question "What did he buy?" In your new sentence, "food" is the direct object noun.
Jeff: Good change.
