No, a predicate nominative is a noun that follows a linking verb, renaming the subject of that verb.
example: Jack is my brother. (Jack = brother)
A nominative noun is a noun that functions as the subject of a sentence or a clause, or as a predicate nominative (a subject complement).The nominative nouns in the sentence are cotton (the subject of the sentence) and plant (a predicate nominative, a noun that follows a linking verb and restates the subject: cotton = plant)
The predicate states what the subject does, is doing, or has done in a sentence.
A predicate nominative is a noun or a pronoun. A predicate noun is a noun.
A predicate noun (predicate nominative) is the noun or a pronoun following a linking verb that restates or stands for the subject. A predicate nominative is a function in a sentence, not a specific noun; any noun can be a predicate nominative. The word 'writer' is a noun.
Yes, "war" can function as a predicate nominative in a sentence. A predicate nominative is a noun or noun phrase that follows a linking verb and renames or identifies the subject. For example, in the sentence "The conflict is a war," "war" serves as the predicate nominative, providing more information about the subject "the conflict."
Not exactly. A predicate nominative (the noun or a pronoun following a linking verb that restates the subject of the sentence) can be a subject complement; but a subject complement can also be a predicate adjective (the adjective following a linking verb which describes the subject of the sentence).In other words, a subject complement can be a predicate nominative or a predicate adjective.

A predicate nominative is a noun or pronoun that renames the subject of a sentence, while a predicate adjective is an adjective that describes the subject of a sentence. Predicate nominatives typically follow a linking verb, such as "is," "was," or "become," while predicate adjectives modify the subject of the sentence directly.
The difference is that a predicate nominative may be a noun, a pronoun, or an adjective, while a predicate noun must be a noun.
A predicate adjective is an adjective that follows a linking verb and describes the subject of the sentence. For example, in the sentence "The flowers are beautiful," "beautiful" is the predicate adjective. A predicate nominative, on the other hand, is a noun or pronoun that follows a linking verb and renames the subject. In the sentence "She is a teacher," "teacher" is the predicate nominative.
Yes and no.They refer to the same noun, but are not the same word. A predicate nominative is a noun that is found in the predicate (the verb half of the sentence) that renames the subject. Example: "Allison is president of the senior class." 'Allison' is the subject;' is 'is the verb. 'President' is a noun found in the predicate which is re-naming Allison. President is the predicate nominative.
