Can you give an 2 example of predicate nominative?

Predicate Nominative Examples:

1. "My sister is a doctor."

* Subject: My sister

* Verb: is

* Predicate Nominative: doctor (renames the subject)

2. "The winner of the competition was she."

* Subject: The winner of the competition

* Verb: was

* Predicate Nominative: she (renames the subject)

Key Takeaway: A predicate nominative is a noun or pronoun that follows a linking verb (like "is", "was", "seems", "becomes") and renames the subject. It clarifies the identity of the subject.
