No, the word 'live' is NOT a noun.

The word 'live' is a verb and an adjective.

  • The noun form of the verb 'live' is the gerund, living.
  • The noun form of the adjective 'live' is liveliness.

A predicate noun (also called a predicate nominative) is the noun or a pronoun following a linking verb that restates or stands for the subject.

A linking verb acts as an equal sign; the subject of the sentence is or becomes the object of the verb.

Example nouns functioning as predicate nouns:

Her skill with animals became her living as a veterinarian.

  • skill = living
The block party was liveliness in the street.
  • party = liveliness
