subject complement

The subject complement is either a noun or an adjective that connects to the subject with a linking verb. Not all sentences have a subject complement, but many do. If you see various forms of the verb "be" in a sentence (am, is, are, was, were, will be, has been, etc.), there's a subject complement.
