relevant range. Usually used in describing fixed costs. We often state that fixed costs will not change as volume changes. However, if volume were to triple, there would likely be more fixed costs as the company will need more space and managers.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (Redirected from Predicate nominative) In grammar, a subject complement (also called a predicative complement) is a predicative expression that follows a linking verb (copula) and that complements the subject of the sentence by either (1) renaming it or (2) describing it.
Definition: The traditional term for a noun, pronoun, or other nominal that follows a linking verb (usually a form of the verb be). The contemporary term for a predicate nominative is subject complement. In formal English, pronouns that serve as predicate nominatives are usually in the subjective (or nominative) case. Here is an example: He is a house husband and quite content.. 2  The subject of the sentence is he. 3  The verb is is a linking verb. 4  The noun husband is a predicate nominative and the adjective content is a predicate adjective. 5  Both types of subject complements follow a single linking verb.
