Note that items must be currently in your inventory to be giveable. If you're wearing something, you have to Remove it before you can give it.

When you give an item, it goes directly to the inventory of the character you're giving it to.

Not every item is necessarily giveable. Also, you may be unable to Give an item due to many possible constraints: not enough energy; paralysis; blindness; etc. The character you want to give it to might be unable to receive it, for similar reasons. As with all commands, the Game Channel will record the outcome of your action.

Many NPCs will accept items which you Give them. But, many won't.

"Like the bricoleur, Eliot extracts certain elements (generally sentences or lines) from organized wholes of various nature, and chooses precisely those elements which are capable of performing a new fuction, more or less distanced from the original, in the new structure. [...] The 'fragment' has become a function: what is striking is no longer that it is dislocated and mangled, but that it possesses a precise meaning and role, and that it contributes effectively towards the composition of a new organized whole."
