	~~lkjlkj~~		The Predicative Complement
			Test for identifying predicative complements in English
			A predicative complement follows a 'linking verb' (copula verb)
			** This is [a good idea]pred.comp.
			Pat will always remain a good friend.
			The committee elected John [chairman]pred.comp.
			Pat considered Kim [a genius]pred.comp.
			Passivization: A predicative complement cannot be passivized:
			*A genius was considered Kim by Pat. (compare with passivization of the direct object: Kim was considered a genius by Pat.)
			Categories and structural position
			The predicative complement can be any major phrase (NP, AP, PP, VP)
			The predicative complement is a sister to V and a daughter to VP.
			If there is a direct object, the predicative complement follows the direct object.
			Example:
			_S_
			/ \
			/ AuxP
			/ / \
			subj / __VP___
			/ / / \
			/ / / pred.comp
			/ / / \
			NP Aux V _______NP________
			/__\ \| \| /_________________\
