Oh, what a lovely question! In the S-V-O-C pattern, the subject performs the action on the object and then gives additional information. For example, "The artist (subject) painted (verb) a beautiful landscape (object) with vibrant colors (complement)." Remember, when you paint your sentences with this pattern, let your creativity flow like happy little clouds in the sky!
SVOC is a clause pattern where S is the Subject, V is a transitive verb (a verb that needs an object), O is the object and C is an object complement (for example an adjective or verb phrase that is linked to the object and completes the sentence.) Examples of this pattern: The man made me angry. S V O C (adj.) This pattern causes difficulties for second language learners because of the uncertainty of what a complement is and what types of complements are acceptable. For example, it is quite common for non-native English speakers to create incorrect sentences like the following... The man made me anger. (X) This sentence is wrong because 'anger' is a noun and therefore cannot be linked to the object which is also a noun.
SVOC stands for "Subject, Verb, Object, Complement." Examples: "They named him Bob."; "We left the door open." Subject: They, We; Verb: named, left; Object: him, the door; Complement: Bob, open.

As the name implies a VOC is a Volitile organic compound. An SVOC is a "Semi" volitile organic compound. Therefore an SVOC is not as "volitile" as a VOC. This is an example from the EPA website.Description Abbreviation Boiling Point Range(°C) Example Compounds Very volatile (gaseous) organic compounds VVOC
Sentence patterns are determined by how the subject, verb, and objects are used. There are from 7 to 10 depending on your source, because linking verbs may be considered as separate patterns. The basic 5 are:Subject + Verb I swim. Joe swims. They swam.Subject + Verb + Object I drive a car. Joe plays the guitar. They ate dinner.Subject + Verb + Complement I am busy. Joe became a doctor. They look sick.Subject + Verb + Indirect Object + Direct Object I gave her a gift. She teaches us English.Subject + Verb + Object + Complement(see the related link)
