Kiss someone good night

Question

The children kissed their parents good night.

這是五大基本句型中的: 「S+V+IO+DO」嗎?
(So we can say "The children kissed good night to their parents" ?)

請指點迷津，感謝。

Answer 1

我認為應該是不行的
因為kiss是及物動詞，後面要直接接受詞
而這句的受詞應該是their parents
所以只能用The children kissed their parents good night.
或The children gave their parents goodnight kisses.

至於上面咪咪將提出的
S+ V+ IO + DO = S + V + DO+ to + IO
適用於很多動詞沒錯
但那是因為他們既可當及物也可當不及物動詞
而我也從來沒看過kiss to somebody/someone這種用法
所以想出這樣的解釋
如果有誤，歡迎大家指教～^w^

Answer 3

所謂DO（直接受詞），通常指物品或一句話。
good night在此並非物品，也非＂一句話＂。
依據牛津字典，
kiss做動詞時的用法有：
1.S+不及物kiss+修飾成分--表示時間、方式等的副詞：
ex. They kissed passionately when she arrived.
2.S+及物kiss+直接受詞：
She kissed him.
3.S+及物kiss+直接受詞+修飾成分--介詞短語。

-----------------------------
The children kissed their parents good night.
個人傾向於分析它是省略句，原句是：
The children kissed their parents (to wish them a) good night.
也就是說，(to wish them a) good night僅為修飾成分。

Answer 4

S+ V+ IO + DO = S + V + DO+ to + IO
I read a story to my students. = I read my students a story.
I brought my friend a sandwich. = I brought a sandwich to my friend.
I gave the monkey a banana. = I gave a banana to the monkey.
I wrote you a letter. = I wrote a letter to you.
I bought you a present. = I bought a present for you.
這種閒接/直接受詞 兩者之間的位置可以互換

I say goodbye to you. = I say you goodbye.
似乎有聽過 但大家可能不常這麼說

同理 kiss me goodnight
可以換成 kiss goodnight to me
You can kiss me goodnight now. (好像皇太后說你可以跪安了^^")
說成 You can kiss goodnight now. (to me 不見的要說)

give me a goodnight kiss / give me a kiss goodnight 也常聽到的
