Sara and Seiko: Sorry--the wrong sentence appeared in the post; please see the new sentence.
1. change subject noun
Overworked employees are decorating stores for Christmas.
2. change direct indirect object noun
Overworked employees are decorating streets for Thanksgiving.
Am I safe in assuming that #2 should have been "change the direct object noun" instead of "change the direct indirect object noun?" :)
Change indirect object noun:
Overworked employees are decorating streets for Christmas.
Sara: Good.
Seiko: Good.
Kelly: Sorry about the error--you are correct, but you have now changed the sentence back to the original IO noun.
