The predicate is just the verb. The complete predicate is the verb and adverbs, etc connected to it.
Were is a verb. Part of the verb "To Be". Is Are Were Was be been ***A predicate is a noun with a verb. Such as Sally slept here. Here is the predicate of the verb slept. Sally is the subject.
A linking verb must be present to have a predicate adjective or predicate noun. Linking verbs connect the subject of a sentence to a subject complement, which can be a noun or an adjective that renames or describes the subject. Examples of linking verbs include "be," "become," "appear," "seem," and "feel."
The simple predicate is "may include," which is the verb phrase expressing the action or state of the subject "a pride."
In the sentence "was" is the auxiliary verb and the simple predicate and 'was surprised' is the compound verb (helping verb 'was' and the main verb 'surprised') and the complete predicate.
Not usually, but sometimes. A complete predicate may include a "predicate adjective" that modifies the simple subject, as in the sentence, "She is pretty", in which "pretty" modifies the simple subject "she". However, this is by no means a necessary part of a predicate in general.

A predicate can include a noun or a pronoun.Examples:I love you. (the complete predicate is 'love you'; the simple predicate is the verb 'love')I made you some brownies.

The "simple" predicate is the main word in the predicate. It is the verb, not adverb, that shows an action or state of being. In your example, the simple predicate is "is." It's a state-of-being verb.
Compound sentences include a verb that connects the subject to a word or phrase in the predicate. The predicate will then rename or describe the subject.
