The Predicate is the term of the sentence that expresses the action, state or quality attributed to the subject. It can be verbal, nominal or verb-nominal, depending on the sentence structure. Understanding the predicate is essential for proper grammatical analysis and complete understanding of the transmitted message. Examples: "He bought a book." In this sentence, the verb "bought" is the core of the verbal predicate, expressing the action of buying. / "The girl is happy." In this sentence, the linking verb "is" joins the subject "the girl" to the predicative of the subject "happy", expressing the state of happiness. / "The team won the game and was euphoric." In this sentence, the verb "won" expresses the action of winning the game, while the predicative of the subject "euphoric" attributes a state to the subject "the team".
