Hello!
I'm writing in this forum cause I have some doubts about a sentence:
"A man named "SPAM KING" had been arrested. "
SPAM KING" is considered by my teacher as a SUBJ.COMPLEMENT....but I don't understand why!
Is the subj.complement the structure which is obligatory after a copula or linking verbs?
I think that "TO NAME" is neither a COPULA nor a LINKING VERB...so, why SPAM KING is a Subj.Complement?
