An Object Complement (OC)\u00a0is usually a\u00a0noun phrase, but it can also occur as an adjectival phrase. An OC complements the DO. (Remember that a <strong>complement <\/strong>is an element that \u201ccompletes\u201d or extends the sense of another element in a construction.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example 1:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>My little brother named Jackie Chan the greatest martial artist.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The DO is &#8220;Jackie Chan&#8221; and the OC that complements that DO is the noun phrase \u201cthe greatest martial artist\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example 2:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>The rigorous training made Jackie Chan strong.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In this sentence the DO is once again \u201cJackie Chan\u201d, but the OC is the AdjPhr \u201cstrong\u201d that complements \u201cJackie Chan&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whasup Pwips!
