sounded?

anonymous · Answer

No, no, no... There are no linking verbs in this sentence, that is what I meant to say.

anonymous · Answer

lol :D

anonymous · Answer

The word 'sound' can sometimes be a linking verb and sometimes it can be an action verb. In this sentence it's an action verb.

Remember to know how and when the complements are used. Like how you can spot them... http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/objects.htm

Both predicate nominatives and predicate adjectives are used with linking verbs, and there are no linking verbs in the sentence.
