Today I reviewed something about how to use adjectives to modify nouns. The adjectives usually precede the nouns they modify, and they can also function as subject complements or object complements which follow the nouns they modify.
Subject complements
A linking verb and completes the meaning of the subjects are followed by a subject complement. When we use adjective functions as subject complements, and the adjective functions describe the subjects.
e.g.
1) This book is useless to me.
"book" here is a subject, "useless" here is an adjective use as a subject complement.
2) Love is blind.
"love" here is a subject, "blind" here is an adjective use as a subject complement.
