DO and IO are standard acronyms, as are SC and OC for subject and object complements, respectively. (Please note, there are two kinds of subject complements: 1) nouns and 2) adjectives). As and Ao are specific terms used only for complements (e.g. She is
in the classroom. (
As)). If your source uses those terms, and you would like to adopt the usage, clearly state, as you have above, the meaning of the terms. On that note, I am confused: Does
As refer only to subject complements?
