OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

A predicate nominative is a noun or pronoun that follows a linking verb and refers to the subject of the verb. Keeping this in mind, what would be your best guess?

@alivejeremy

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

im here

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

its A

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

That's correct. How did you find that?

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

i guess it

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

but i kinda know it

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

Lol. Do you see why it's A then?

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

OpenStudy (malcolmmcswain):

The predicate nominative renames the subject. The subject is 'they', and skaters renames the subject, so skaters is the predicate nominative.

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):
