Is the underlined word a predicate nominative or a predicate adjective?
Would the best parts have been gears or belts?
a. predicate nominative
b. predicate adjective
Have been is a linking verb, so therefore you go straight to what's after it. Gear is a noun, along with belts. Predicate nominative is a fancy word for noun. The answer is A. Predicate Nominative
The underlined word is belts right? If so then I know the answer it may be late but i can asure you that this is the right answer and it is predicate nominative.
