Chapter 2 Grammar

Complements: a word or word group that completes the meaning of a verb Examples: Aunt Sophie watched us fishing. The book is an autobiography Do not mistake an adverb for a complement Rob felt confident Lucy works hard Joey hit a home run A complement will never be in a prepositional phrase Sandra Cisneros writes poetry and fiction Christopher quoted from the poem Tino wants a new tennis racket

Finding complements Find your subject and verb in the sentence Then put your subject and verb together and ask “What” after. Your answer will be the complement Example: She threw the ball She=subject, threw=verb She threw what? Ball=complement The speaker looked very enthusiastic. The Girl Scout built a fire.

Predicate Nominative: a word or word group that is in the predicate and that identifies the subject or refers to it. Follows a linking verb and always a noun. Use the same “what” method to find your predicate nominative Some caterpillars become butterflies. The winners should have been they. She is the new speaker. Our cats’ names are Bianca and Henry. What a fine speaker you are!

Predicate Adjective: an adjective that is in the predicate and that modifies the subject of a sentence. Follows a linking verb and is an adjective. You look happy. When she left, Norma appeared calm. He said that the yogurt tasted delicious. How silly that commercial is.

Direct Objects and Indirect objects: follow action verbs Direct object: a noun, pronoun, or word group that tells who or what receives the action of the verb. Indirect object: a noun, pronoun, or word group that appears in sentences containing a direct object. An indirect object tells to whom or to what the action of the verb is done to. Examples: Meli read us her poem Juan left you this message. Carly knitted her pet a blanket.

Finding Direct and indirect Objects Find the subject and verb Examples Then ask “What” after the subject and verb I kicked him the ball Subject= I, Verb= kicked This answer will be the direct object I kicked what? Ball=direct object If there is an indirect object, Ask “To whom” before the subject and verb. To whom did I kick it? Him= Indirect object Jeff wrote me a note. Our ski instructor game Lucia and me great tips.
