For a verb to be a linking verb, the direct object of the verb will be another word for or another form of the subject of the verb.
A linking verb acts as an equals sign; 'Mary is my sister.' (Mary=sister); or 'Mary's feet got wet.' (feet->wet). Examples:
The teacher appeared tired. (teacher=tired)
The teacher appeared in the doorway. (not a linking verb)
