Greetings all:

I have always taken for granted the category "dative direct object." 
However, in the course of reading the GNT and thinking about the verbs 
that are commonly described as taking a dative "direct object," I have 
come to wonder why the dative in such cases is described in this way. 
Are there good reasons to think of this use of the dative as a true 
direct object, or is there a better way to explain the phenomenon?
