he is an intelligent boy( change in predictive adj )
Answers
He is intelligent.
Predicative adjective (also called predicate adjective) is a traditional term for an adjective that usually comes after a linking verb rather than before a noun. (Contrast with an attributive adjective.)
- Predicative adjectives go after the verb, in the second position.
- They often function as the object of the verb. Since the verb and the object are the predicate of the sentence, we use the term "predicative."
- They are describing the subject of the sentence.
- These adjectives are not optional - they play the role of predicate, so they cannot be left out.
- These adjectives are essential information in the sentence - in fact, the goal of sentences is usually to share this information.

A predicate adjective is one of many different types of adjectives. Basically, predicate adjectives modify the subject of the sentence. ... In the sentence "The wall is purple," the subject is "wall," the predicate adjective is "purple" and the linking verb is "is." So, it's subject, verb, and predicate adjective.
