Subject Complement | ThoughtCo

By Richard Nordquist

Updated June 30, 2020

In grammar, a complement is a word or word group that completes the predicate in a sentence.

Subject complements follow a linking verb and provide additional information about the subject of the sentence.

The subject complement is normally a noun or an adjective that defines or renames the subject in some way.
