Click to expand... Yes, of course. "Late" isn't a noun. It's an adjective in this sentence. We can say I am late. :tick: You are late. :tick: He will be late. :tick: They were late. :tick: The adjective "late" needs the verb "be" in these sentences. In English, every sentence must have a verb. So we cannot say I late. :cross: You late. :cross: He late. :cross: They late. :cross: These are not correct sentences, because they don't have any verbs.
