What is a compound indirect object?

A compound indirect object is a grammatical structure in which there are multiple indirect objects in a sentence. These indirect objects receive the action of the verb and typically answer the question "to whom" or "for whom" the action is done. For example, in the sentence "She gave her sister and her mother a gift," "her sister" and "her mother" are both compound indirect objects.
