una carta is the direct object, and can be replaced by the direct object pronoun la, placed before the verb: La escribí. [I wrote it.] In [link to lesson 31- Indirect Object Pronouns] we learned that indirect objects are the secondary recipients of the action – they are affected by the action without being the direct recipient of it.
An indirect object is also a noun or pronoun, but it appears in a sentence before the direct object. Indirect objects are used to show to whom or for whom the action is done. For example, in the sentence “I gave him the book,” the verb “gave” is a transitive verb, “the book” is the direct object, and “him” is the indirect object
That object might be a noun, phrase, or pronoun that designates the subject or object of the verb’s action. Sometimes an indirect object can come before the direct object in a transitive verb. Despite the absence of the phrases to or for, the indirect object indicates who or for whom the action is performed. Examples of Transitive Verbs
