  2. Complements • A complement is a word or group of words that completes the meaning begun by the subject and verb. • Four kinds: direct objects, indirect objects, predicate nominatives, and predicate adjectives • Two are affected by the action of the verb • Predicate nominatives and predicate adjectives are both called subject complements.

  3. Direct Objects • The direct object receives the action expressed by the verb or names the result of the action. • Examples: 1. She drank the soda. 2. I signed the check.

  4. Indirect Objects • Indirect objects precede the direct object and tell to whom or what or for whom or what the action of the verb is done. • Examples: • My mom gave me a present. • Bob sent us the memo on Thursday.

  5. Subject Complements • A subject complement is a word which follows a linking verb and refers to (explains or describes) the subject. • Two kinds: predicate nominatives and predicate adjectives

  6. Predicate Nominatives • Predicate nominatives are nouns or pronouns. • Examples: 1. She is a secretary. 2. It was him.

  7. Predicate Adjectives • Predicate adjectives are adjectives which modify the subject. • Examples: • She is pretty. • My dog is lazy.

  9. The Object of the Preposition • Prepositions often begin prepositional phrases. • To complete the phrase, the preposition usually teams up with a noun,pronoun, or gerund, or the object of the preposition. • Here are some examples:
