Can an adjective be used as a subject complement after linking verb?

Yes, absolutely! An adjective can definitely be used as a subject complement after a linking verb.

Here's how it works:

* Linking verbs connect the subject of a sentence to a word that renames or describes it. Some common linking verbs are "be" (is, am, are, was, were, been), seem, appear, become, feel, look, smell, taste, sound.

* Subject complements follow linking verbs and provide more information about the subject. They can be nouns, pronouns, or adjectives.

Examples:

* The sky is blue. (Blue is an adjective describing the sky)

* She feels happy. (Happy is an adjective describing how she feels)

* The music sounds loud. (Loud is an adjective describing the sound of the music)
