iobj: indirect object

The indirect object of a verb is a pronominal complement which corresponds to a dative object. In Italian the iobj only appears as clitic pronoun because when the indirect object is realized as a prepositional phrase, it is labeled as nmod (ex. Dare a qualcuno qualcosa, give something to someone).
