Objective Complement (Misplaced Words)

Objective Complement (Misplaced Words)

noun (বা anything equivalent to a noun) কিংবা adjective কোন object-এর পরে বসে সেই object-কে refer বা qualify করে তাকেই objective complement বলা হয়। যেমন,

People called him a genius. 
He struck the cat dead.

Objective complement কখনো object-এর আগে বসতে পারে না। যেমন,
Wrong: He declared dead the patient. 
Right: He declared the patient dead.

Right: We elected him captain. 
Wrong: We elected captain him.

Objective Complement যদি noun-ও হয় তবু তা কখনো subject হিসেবে কাজ করতে পারে না। যেমন,

Wrong: A genius was called him by people.

Active voice-এর objective complement, passive voice-এ গিয়ে subjective complement হয়ে যায় এবং তখন তার অবস্থান হয় passive verb-এর পরে। যেমন, 
He was called a fool.
এখানে a fool হচ্ছে subjective complement.
