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.
