So far… We have talked about Objects that follow action verbs. Now… We will discuss the parts of speech that follow linking verbs.

The Subject Complement The subject complement (SC) is a noun, pronoun, or adjective that follows a linking verb and identifies or describes the subject of the sentence. There are two kinds of SC’s: Predicate Nominatives (PN) and Predicate Adjectives (PA).

First, What is a Linking Verb? The most common linking verb is a form of the verb “to be” Is Am Are Was Were Be Being Been The following verbs are sometimes linking verbs. Sometimes they may be action verbs. You must decide. It all depends on how they are used in the sentence. AppearFeel Stay LookSeem Turn SoundTaste BecomeGrow RemainSmell

Predicate Nominative Earlier we learned that a Direct Object answers the question who? or what? following the action verb. A Predicate Nominative is linked to the subject of the sentence by a linking verb. Linking verbs act like an equals sign. Subject = Predicate Nominative

Guided Practice Joanne is the scorekeeper for the girls basketball team. Jonathan and Jeffrey are good friends. Mrs. Monahan will always be the best reading teacher in the world. A few years ago, Coach Hooley was the wrestling coach at EMS. Jaqueline will be a bridesmaid in her friend’s upcoming wedding.

Things to know A Predicate Nominative is always a noun or a pronoun. A Predicate Noun will NEVER fall inside a prepositional phrase. Unless it is a question, the Predicate Nominative will always follow the linking verb: Subject- Linking Verb-Predicate Noun Predicate Nominatives always use Subject pronouns (not object pronouns) I, he, she, we, they, who

Predicate Adjective A Predicate Adjective (PA) is similar to a Predicate Noun (PN) in that it always follows a Linking Verb (LV). The Predicate Adjective (PA) is always an adjective. An adjective modifies (describes) a noun or a pronoun. The PA modifies (describes) the subject of the sentence. You will not have a PN and a PA next to each other!
