1. a second type of subject complement—a noun, group of nouns, or noun clause that renames the subject. It, like the predicate adjective, follows a linking verb and is located in the predicate of the sentence.
2. question to which the answer is obvious so does not require a verbal response
3. a sentence consisting of one independent clause and no dependent clause.
4. dialogue in which the endings and beginnings of each line echo each other, taking on a new meaning with each new line
5. the word (with any accompanying phrases) or clause that follows a linking verb and complements, or completes, the subject of the sentence by either (1) renaming it or (2) describing it
6. a word group that contains both a subject and a verb (plus any accompanying phrases or modifiers), but unlike the independent clause, it cannot stand alone; it does not express a complete thought. Also called a dependent clause, it depends on a main clause to complete its meaning.
7. the manner in which words are arranged into sentences
8. a common figure of speech in which the literal sense of what is said falls detectably short of the magnitude of what is being talked about.
