FINITE CLAUSE
IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST BENEFICENT, THE MOST MERCIFUL
Assalamualaikum readers =)
Today, I'm going to discuss about Finite Clause
Finite Clause
-A clause that contain a finite verb.
-Can stand on its own ; independent clause
- But also can be dependent clause
Definition of Finite Verb
- A form of a verb that shows agreement with a subject and is marked for tense.
- This verb is usually the main verb of a clause or sentence and can change according to the noun ( person and the number of subject )
- A verb that does not need object (intransitive verb )
See how the verb play changes with the person and the number of its subject. When the subject is in the third person singular, that is he, she, it, the verb changes to plays. When the subject is in the first or singular person, that is I or you and in the plural that is we, you, they, it does not change the verb play. Every sentence must have a finite verb, we cannot write a sentence without using a finite verb.
More examples for finite verb :

SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL
Title : Paranorman
Paranorman - The best home videos are here
Synopsis :
Eleven-year-old Norman Babcock is a young misfit with a remarkable gift: He sees dead people. Although Norman's clairvoyance allows him the unique opportunity to enjoy the company of his beloved grandmother long after she has ceased to be, it also drives his frustrated father Perry and popularity-obsessed sister Courtney up the wall at home and makes him the target of dim-witted bully Alvin at school. His only friend is portly Neil, who isn't exactly a beacon of coolness. When Norman's deceased uncle Prenderghast, a local pariah, warns the young boy that he must save their small town of Blithe Hollow from a witch's curse that has plagued the area for centuries, the young creature-feature addict isn't entirely sure how to respond -- that is, until the sky turns red, the clouds start to swirl, and the dead rise up from their graves. Now, as a terrified mob takes to the streets with torches in hand, it's up to Norman, Courtney, Alvin, Neil, and Neil's older brother Mitch to put things right, even if it means confronting the 300-year-old curse that has haunted Blithe Hollow ever since the notorious witch hunts of the 18th century.

OBJECT COMPLEMENT
IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST BENEFICENT, THE MOST MERCIFUL
Assalamualaikum everyone (^_^)
Today, I will share with all of you about "Object Complement".
Definition of object ---> A word or group of words, functioning as a noun or a pronoun, that is influenced by a verb (direct object), a verbal (indirect object), or a preposition (object of a preposition).
Definition of complement ---> In grammar, a word that completes the predicate in a sentence.Two kinds of complement are subject complement (which follow the verb be and other linking verbs ) and object complements (which follow a direct object).
Object Complement
-An object complement always follows the direct object and either renames or describes the direct object. Consider this sentence :
She named her daughter Apple
As you can see,the verb above is named. To find the subject, ask, 'Who or what named?'The answer is she, so she is the subject. Now ask, 'Whom or what did she name?' She named the baby,so the baby is the direct object. Any word that following the direct object that renames or describes the direct object is object complement. She named the baby Apple, so Apple is the object complement.
Below, I give more examples of object complement in the sentence.
Examples :
Bad
TV habits can make a person lazy
My little
sister gleefully painted the wall pink.
Now, we continue to Direct and Indirect Object.

DO OC
The judges declared Kristi
the winner of the skating competition
DO OC

My little
sister gleefully painted the wall pink.

Now, we continue to Direct and Indirect Object.
-
Direct object---> A noun,pronoun or noun clause in a sentence that receives the action of a transitive verb (a verb that takes an object). If you can identify the subject and verb in a sentence, then finding the direct object-if one exist-is easy.Just remember this simple formula :
Subject + Verb + what? or who? = Direct object
Here are some examples of the formula in action
Alia and Mariana played netball.
Alia and Mariana = subjects ; played = verb. Alia and Mariana played what?
Netball = direct object
Alia pushed Mariana in purpose.
Alia = subject; pushed = verb. Alia pushed who? Mariana = direct object
Indirect Object---> An indirect object precedes the direct object and tells to whom or for whom the action of the verb is done and who is receiving the direct object. For an indirect object to appear, a sentence must first have a direct object.
When someone [or something] gets the direct object , that word is the indirect object.Look at this examples
Max built his granddaughter a sandcastle on the beach.
Max = subject;built = verb. Max built what? Sandcastle = direct object. Who got the sandcastle? Granddaughter = indirect object.
To explain the broken lamp, we told Mom a lie.
We = subject;told = verb. We told what? Lie = direct object.Who got the lie? Mom = direct object
Sometimes, the indirect object will occur in a prepostional phrase beginning with to or for. Read these two sentences:
Ali gave Linda the books.
Ali gave the books to Linda
In both sentences, Linda (the indirect object) gets the books (direct object)
So, that's all from me. I hope this entry will help all of you a little bit about Object Complement (^_~)
