Thanks for your latest reply.
Take a look at <
http://www.sil.org/linguistics/GlossaryOfLinguisticTerms/WhatIsAnIndirectObjec
t.htm >
for differences between, on the one hand, direct and indirect objects, and, on
the other hand, indirect objects and obliques.
And look at
< http://comp.ling.utexas.edu/~jbeavers/alternations-abstract.txt >
or
< http://comp.ling.utexas.edu/~jbeavers/semfest-handout.pdf >
for differences between objects and obliques.
Also take a look at

and

for discussions about tritransitives.
