Example

  • Grammar roles such as whether a constituent is a subject object or subject complement provide more constraints on whether a syntactic constituent can be reused in a new sentence. (Pan & Weng, 2002)
  • Quirk Greenbauum Leech Svartvik (1985) explained that the predicative adjectives may function either as a subject complement (1) or object complement (2). (Chen & Chung, 2018)
  • Relations between a verb and its subject complements and adjuncts including direct and indirect objects adverbs and modifying prepositional phrases. (Dagan & Itai, 1994)
  • The results showed that a number of [ADJ of] (e.g. capable of indicative of) can be used as an object complement to postmodify a preceding NP while others (e.g. true of aware of) only function as subject complement. (Chen & Chung, 2018)
  • While the adjective predicates can serve both as the subject complements and object complements they are much rarer found as object complements. (Chen & Chung, 2018)
