17. 4. Review: Predicate Nominative • Hardcover page 49 helps you review the linking verb be • When the verb be is used as the main verb of a sentence, it is a linking verb • It links what follows the verb to the subject • When a noun follows a linking verb, it renames the subject. It is called a predicate nominative.

18. 4. Review: Predicate Nominative • Example: • Lupe Medrano was an excellent student. • The verb is is the main verb. • Is is a form of the verb be. It is a linking verb in this sentence. • Student can rename Lupe, so it is a predicate nominative.

19. 4. Review: Predicate Nominative • A direct object in a sentence answers the question: what did they (he/she/it) do it to? • A direct object is the predicate part of the sentence and is usually a noun or pronoun. • The verb be can never take a direct object • Example: • Lupe Medrano played marbles.
