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.
