Predicate Adjectives
Adjectives that complete the meaning of the verb and modify the
subject are called predicare adjectives. If an adjective
is found in the predicate and modifies a noun in the predicate,
it is not a predicate adjective. The adjective must follow the
linking verb and modify the subject in order to be classified
as predicate adjective. The predicate subjective usually describes
the subject, noun or pronoun.
