  1. Complements– who needs them? “You look nice today.” No!!! Not that type of compliment!!! Complement with an e. It’s a grammar term. Unit EQ: How do I distinguish among the following complements: - direct objects - indirect objects - predicate nominatives - predicate adjectives?

  2. Complements:Predicate Nominatives and Predicate Adjectives Lesson EQs: How are nouns used as predicate nominatives? How are adjectives used as predicate adjectives?

  4. Review!! • A complement is a word or word group that completes the meaning of a verb • There are four main types of complements: 1. Direct Objects 2. Indirect Objects 3. Predicate Nominatives 4. Predicate Adjectives

  5. 3. Predicate Nominatives • A predicate nominative is a noun, pronoun, or a word group in the predicate that identifies the subject. • It is connected to the subject by a linking verb.

  6. Predicate Nominatives In order to find the predicate nominative, There are 2 questions you must ask: #1: Does the sentence have a linking verb? • The sentence MUST have a linking verbin order to have an predicate nominative. #2: What noun, pronoun, or word group in the predicate is linked to the subject? • The answer will give you the predicate nominative.

  7. Predicate Nominatives Example: A tiger is a wild animal #1: What is the linking verb? The word “is” is a linking verb. #2: What noun in the predicate is being linked back to the subject “tiger”? The noun “animal” is being linked back to the subject tiger. Therefore, “Animal” is the Predicate Nominative. A tigerisa wildanimal.

  8. Predicate Nominatives Let’s practice: That is what I wrote. First, ask: What is the linking verb? is Second, ask: What word or word group that functioning as a noun is linked back to the subject? What I wrote;What I wrote is thePredicate Nominative. That iswhat I wrote.

  9. Predicate Nominative Notice: A predicate nominative is NEVER in a preposition phrase. 1. Bill Russell became famous as a basketball player. Playeris not the predicate nominative. It is the object of the preposition as. 2. Bill Russell became a famous basketball player. Player is the predicate nominative.

  10. Assessment Prompt 1 Underline the verb(s)/verb phrase(s) and put “PN” over the predicate nominatives. • A dictionary is a valuable tool. • This piece of flint could be an old arrowhead. • The winner of the race was she. • Is that what you ordered? • The discoverers of radium were Pierre Curie and Marie Sklodowska Currie.

  12. 4. Predicate Adjectives • A predicate adjective is an adjective that is in the predicate and that describes the subject. • It is connected to the subject by a linking verb.

  13. Predicate Adjectives In order to find the predicate adjective, There are 2 questions you must ask: #1: Does the sentence have a linking verb? • The sentence MUST have a linking verbin order to have an predicate adjective. #2: What adjective in the predicate is linked to the subject? • The answer will give you the predicate adjective.

  14. Predicate Adjectives Example: The paper is colorful. #1: What is the linking verb? The word “is” is a linking verb. #2: What adjective in the predicate is being linked back to the subject? The adjective “colorful” is being linked back to the subject paper. The adjective “colorful” is the predicate adjective. The paper iscolorful

  15. Predicate Adjectives Let’s practice: The cold milk taste good. First, ask: What is the linking verb? taste Second, ask: What adjective in the predicate is linked to the subject? good;good is thePredicate Adjective. The cold milk tastegood.
