A predicate adjective is an adjective that follows a linking verb and describes or modifies the subject of the sentence. It is used to provide more information about the subject by linking it to an adjective. For example, in the sentence "The sky is blue," the adjective "blue" is the predicate adjective that describes the subject "the sky." Another example is "The flowers smell sweet," where "sweet" describes the subject "the flowers." Predicate adjectives are important for enhancing sentences by providing specific details about the subject, helping to clarify its characteristics or qualities.
