3. Subject Complement
Includes predicate nouns, predicate pronouns, and predicate adjectives.
A predicate noun is a noun that serves as a subject complement.
A predicate pronoun is a pronoun that serves as a subject complement.
A predicate adjective is an adjective that serves as a subject complement.

4. Identification
The subject complement requires a copula (a linking verb).
This is usually a form of to be, but can also be a form of other verbs like to seem or to feel.
If the verb can be substituted with an equals sign (“=”) and retain its meaning, it is likely a copula.
