Subject v/s Object

In a sentence "subject" is a noun which performs the action where as "object" is a noun which receive action performed by the subject

Example

John is eating mango.
* In the above sentence "John" is a person who is performing the verb(to eat), so John is a subject
* Simlarly, the word "mango" is an object because the verb (eating) is applied on it.
* So it is clear the object is the thing or a person affected by the verb
* Generally, subject is placed before the verb and object is placed after the verb(exceptions are there)

Other Examples

We are going to club.
will you play football.
I love roses.
