obj: object
The object of a verb (obj) is one of two core arguments of the verb together with the subject. This relation is typically used for nouns or nominal phrases which represent the affected object of the action, that is, the entity which undergoes some change of state or position (the direct object). In Slovene, this role is most often—but not exclusively—performed by objects in the accusative and genitive (in the case of negation) cases.

If a clause contains only one non-clausal object (i.e. an object tat is not ccomp), this object can be marked either as a direct object (obj) or an indirect object (iobj). See the iobj relation for more detailed guidelines and examples of sole objects in Slovenian.
The obj relation is not used for prepositional phrases, even if they are syntactically or semantically necessary and cannot be omitted from the sentence (e.g., veliko se je govorilo o hladni vojni). Regardless of their meaning and omissibility, prepositional phrases are always treated as peripheral objects (obl).
