An object is understood to be any inanimate element or body, which is almost always small or medium in size. In other words, an object is something that can be perceived through our senses, and about which we think, but it has no life of its own. This word comes from the Latin “obiectus”, made up of the prefix “ob” which means on, or on top, plus the verb “iacere” which means to throw, or to throw, and is the root of the verb “to throw”; In ancient times the word "obiectus" symbolized something of little value, which could be thrown or thrown without worrying at all.
Object, is also that matter, theme or fixation to which a science is dedicated. On the other hand, the object is that purpose or plan that leads to an action or execution. In syntax, we speak of a direct object or direct object, which receives the action of the verb directly; and / or indirect object or indirect object that receives the action of the direct object verb.
In philosophy, the praiseworthy thing that is perceived or known by man is called an object, encompassing himself. The term was introduced to refer to the content of an intellectual or perceptual fact, so when speaking of an objective being, it refers to the content of the soul, and not something external to it, which really exists. Descartes and Hobbes modern philosophers, altered the concept of the term, adapting it to the content of the intellectual act, but to the thing or element represented, which is considered outside the soul.
