Verb as Complement
Pengertian Complement:
Complement adalah kata atau
kelompok kata yang melengkapi makna dari subject, verb, atau object. Dengan
demikian, ada tiga macam complement, yaitu: subject, verb, dan object
complement.
Subject Complement
Pengertian Subject Complement
Subject complement adalah noun,
pronoun, adjective, atau konstruksi lain (berperan sebagai noun atau adjective)
yang mengikuti verbs of being atau linking verb serta berfungsi menerangkan
atau merujuk subjek kalimat.
Subject complement terbagi menjadi
tiga yaitu:
§ predicate
adjective (subjek dihubungkan dengan adjective)
§ predicate noun (subjek dihubungkan dengan
noun)
§ predicate pronoun (subjek dihubungkan dengan
pronoun).
Keterangan: Subject complement = bold . linking verb = italic.
Contoh Kalimat Subject
Complement:
Mrs.Diana was a great headmaster
|
Headmaster =menerangkan subjek (Mrs.Diana)
A great = modifier yang menerangkan headmaster
A great headmaster = noun phrase
|
That lady is
very beautiful
|
Beautiful – menerangkan subjek (lady)
Very=modifier yang menerangkan beautiful
That lady =noun phrase
|
These are yours
|
Yours
= menerangkan subjek (this)
These
= demonstrative pronoun
|
The noodle tasted
delicious
|
Delicious > (predicate adjective = menerangkan
subjek (noodle)
The noodle = noun phrase
|
So, What is a verb complement?
A verb complement is the
arrangement of one verb as the object of another verb. This happens three ways
in English:
1. With infinitives,Infinitives adalah bentuk dasar dari
verbs. Dalam bahasa inggris, penulisan infinitives biasanya diawali dengan
“to”. Misalnya: to read, to walk, to give, dan seterusnya. Meskipun pada
umumnya infinitive diawali dengan “to”, akan tetapi ada beberapa infinitive
tanpa “to”, biasanya disebut dengan “bare infinitive”. Contoh:
a. Subject + Verb + to infinitive
ü I
want to study English.
ü I hope to see you again.
ü Residents
are not allowed to bring pets in my apartment.
b. subject + verb + object (nouns/ pronouns)
+ to infinitive
ü My
boss expects me to finish the work as soon as possible.
ü The teacher reminded the students to do their
homework.
ü The
doctor advised him to stop smoking.
§ I
asked her to leave.
§ I
wanted to leave.
§ I
helped him to leave.
§ I
stopped for the child to cross the street.
2. With gerunds Verb + Gerunds
Gerund adalah kata kerja yang
berfungsi sebagai kata benda sehingga dapat berfungsi sebagai subjek, objek dan
pelengkap (complement) dalam kalimat, juga di belakang sebuah preposisi. Bentuk
gerund biasanya disebut verb+ing. Mungkin istilah itulah yang biasa kita kenal
selama ini mengenai gerund. Singkatnya, Gerund adalah kata benda yang dibentuk
dari kata kerja (verb) + ing. Gerund sebagai pelengkap tidak dapat dijadikan
subject dalam kalimat pasif (passive voice). Gerund terletak setelah to be:
is/am/are, was/were, been/being/be. Contoh :
§
My hobby
is fishing
§
Her hobby is reading novel
§
My favorite sport is playing football
§
What she wants to do now is crying over her
mother to release her burden.
§
I considered leaving the job.
§ I
regretted his leaving the job.
§ They
decided on leaving.
3. With noun clauses,
§ I
insisted that he leave.
§ I
wondered why he left..
§ She
acknowledged that she had left the job.
§ He
didn’t know that she had left.
§ She
decided when she would leave.
Verb + Preposition
+ Gerund
Ada dua kemungkinan jika Gerund digunakan sebagai Object, yakni
Object of Preposition (Object Kata Depan) dan Object of Verb (Object Kata Kerja).
Beberapa preposisi (preposition) lazim yang sering diikuti oleh Gerund adalah: about, in, for, of, without, from, by, dan to.
Untuk preposisi “to”, boleh diikuti Gerund jika fungsinya memang
sebagai presposisi, bukan bentuk dari infinitive. Contoh :
I’m used to
sleeping with the window open.
I’m accustomed to sleeping with the
window open.
I look
forward to going home next month.
