One important part is the object complement in Grammar. It may sound tricky at first, but it is actually simple. It is a word that gives more information about the object of a sentence. It tells us what the object has become or how it is described. In this blog, we will learn what an object complement is, why it is used, and see examples to understand it better. Also, you will learn about the difference between object and subject complement along with other aspects of this topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-an-object-complement-in-grammar-nbsp\"><span id=\"what-is-an-object-complement-in-grammar\">What is an Object Complement in Grammar?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a word or phrase that follows and modifies or renames the direct object of a verb. It gives more information about what the object has become or is identified as. Object complements can be nouns, pronouns, or adjectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example 1:<\/strong> <em>They elected her president.<\/em><em><br><\/em> (\u201cPresident\u201d renames \u201cher.\u201d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example 2:<\/strong> <em>The movie made him famous.<\/em><em><br><\/em> (\u201cFamous\u201d describes \u201chim.\u201d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Object complements are used with certain verbs like <em>make, call, name, elect,<\/em> and <em>consider<\/em>.

The direct object is the noun or pronoun that receives the action of the verb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong> <em>They named the baby Sophia.<\/em><em><br><\/em><strong>Explanation:<\/strong> In the sentence <em>They named the baby Sophia<\/em>, the direct object is <em>the baby<\/em> because it receives the action of the verb <em>named<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: Identify the Main Verb: <\/strong>Next, find the verb in the sentence. Certain verbs, such as <em>call, name, consider, make, find, elect<\/em>, and <em>declare<\/em>, often take an object complement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong> <em>The jury found him guilty.<\/em><em><br><\/em><strong>Explanation:<\/strong> The verb <em>found<\/em> is used here to describe the state of <em>him<\/em>, the direct object.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: Look for the Word or Phrase After the Direct Object: <\/strong>Check if there is a word or phrase immediately following the direct object. This is the possible object complement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong> <em>The jury found him guilty.<\/em><em><br><\/em><strong>Explanation:<\/strong> The word <em>guilty<\/em> comes after the direct object <em>him<\/em> and describes his state, making it the object complement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4: Check if It Renames or Describes the Direct Object: <\/strong>Now, determine if the word or phrase renames or describes the direct object.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If it renames the direct object, it is a noun object complement.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If it describe<strong>s<\/strong> the direct object, it is an adjective object complement.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example of Noun Object Complement:<\/strong> <em>We consider her a genius.<\/em><em><br><\/em><strong>Explanation:<\/strong> <em>A genius<\/em> renames <em>her <\/em>(the object), making it a noun object complement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example of Object Complement:<\/strong> <em>They painted the walls blue.<\/em><em><br><\/em><strong>Explanation:<\/strong> <em>Blue<\/em> describes <em>the walls<\/em> (the object), making it an adjective object complement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5: Take the Sentence Completion Test (Helpful Tip)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you remove the object complement, the sentence may still make sense but feel incomplete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong> <em>The teacher called the assignment a masterpiece.<\/em><em><br><\/em><strong>Explanation:<\/strong> Without <em>a masterpiece<\/em>, the sentence <em>The teacher called the assignment<\/em> feels incomplete. This confirms that <em>a masterpiece<\/em> is an object complement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-object-complement-vs-subject-complement\"><span id=\"object-complement-vs-subject-complement\">Object Complement vs.Subject Complement<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In English grammar, object complements and <a href=\"https:\/\/leverageedu.com\/explore\/learn-english\/subject-complement-in-grammar\/\"><strong>subject complements <\/strong><\/a>play important roles in sentence structure.
