A pronoun in the nominative case is used as:

  • the subject of a sentence.
  • the subject of a clause,
  • a predicate nominative (also called a subject complement, a pronoun following a linking verb that restates or stands for the subject).

The nominative pronouns are: I, we, he, she, they, and who.

The pronouns you and it are used as a subject or an object in a sentence.

Example uses:

  • We can go to school together. (subject of the sentence)
  • The car that he drives is very old. (subject of the relative clause)
  • The first person to arrive is she. (predicate nominative, restates the subject noun 'person')
  • The Browns came to visit and they brought the baby. (subject of the second part of the compound sentence)
  • You should do what's best for you. (subject of the sentence and object of the preposition 'for')
  • It is raining but the weather report didn't call for it. (subject of the sentence and object of the preposition 'for')

Hope you ll get over it soon.Is this sentence right?

It's not a full sentence -" I hope you get over it soon" would be better I think Remark: I hope you get it over soon. - OR I hope you get over ON it soon. Two part verbs require pronouns separating them.


Is it correct to say enclosed is my transcript and application fee?

No. You should instead say, "Enclosed are my transcript and application fee", because the subject of the sentence is "transcript and application fee" and compound subjects (at least two nouns or pronouns joined by "and") always require a plural verb form.


How do you find the predicate in a sentence?

A predicate adjective follows a linking verb. The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object is a form of the subject, or the subject becomes the object. Some common linking verbs are seem, feel, and any form of be.Examples:I am sick.Bob feels sick.You seem sick.Barb got sick.In all the examples, sick is the predicate adjective.


How do adjectives modify pronouns?

A pronoun is not a modifier. A pronoun stands in for a noun; the noun that the pronoun replaces is called the antecedent. Examples:When George got to 19th Street, he got off the train. (The pronoun he takes the place of the noun George in the second part of the sentence; George is the antecedent.)We take the six o'clock train. (The pronoun we is standing in for the nouns for our names. The first and second person pronouns 'I', 'me', 'you', 'we' and 'us' do not require an antecedent.)Yes, I like it. (The pronoun it has no antecedent because the speaker and the one spoken to understand what 'it' is referring to.)


Do you capitalize your honor?

Oh, dude, like, totally! You capitalize "honor" when it's used as part of a proper noun, like in "Honor Society." But if it's just hanging out by itself in a sentence, no need to give it the royal treatment with a capital letter. Keep it chill, man.

Difference between objective and subjective?

Subjective observations cannot be seen. They are ideas, thoughts, or opinions. If you cannot see it, feel it, hear it, or smell it, it is a subjective observation. Objective observations can be seen. If you can see it, feel it, hear it, or smell it, it is an objective observation. Objective observations can be tested and falsified for objects and concepts that cannot be seen, heard, smelled, felt, or smelled, such as subatomic particles.

What is the definition of communicative grammar?

Communicative grammar is based on the communicative approach to the Teaching of second/foreign languages. Language structures must not be taught in isolation but integrated to the four skills of language: listening, speaking, reading and writing. In this way a structure is practiced orally and In written form. Grammatical patterns must not only be learned at the utterance level but at the discourse level; the main objective focuses on the development of communicative grammatical competence, which is understood as the ability to use and understand a structure in a variety of situations spontaneously. The approach calls for a certain balance between pre-communicative and communicative activities: the first prepare the learner to handle the language rules for actual communication and the latter enable him to use the structures in real communication. The students must not only do drills and precommunicative exercises in class, but they must interact and communicate with other speakers when they use the patterns they are studying. Classes are planned in a way that the students use the structures naturally and not artificially, and they require time and practice to internalize those patterns by using a process in which grammatical structures are recycled with more complex variations.
