A linking verb connects the subject of a sentence to an adjective, noun, or pronoun that completes the meaning of the verb. Common linking verbs are the forms of the verb to be; verbs relating to the five senses; and the verbs become, appear, and seem. Common Linking Verbs: Note: When an adjective follows a linking verb, it is known as a predicate adjective, which describes the subject. When a noun follows a linking verb, it is known as a predicate nominative, which renames the subject. Remember: Linking verbs connect the subject of a sentence to an adjective, noun, or pronoun that completes the meaning of the verb.
