for DGII
A simple sentence is a group of words expressing a complete thought, and it must have a subject and a verb (predicate - some grammar books use the word predicate, but Johanson will use verb)
Further exercises on the Subject and the Verb. A predicate nominative or predicate noun completes a linking verb and renames the subject. It is a complement or completer because it completes the verb. Predicate nominatives complete only linking verbs
The direct object must be a noun or pronoun. A direct object will never be in a prepositional phrase.
