" Our new teacher seemed pleasant." T or F: 'new' is the predicate adjective in this sentence
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
In the given sentence, "Our new teacher seemed pleasant," the word "new" is not functioning as a predicate adjective. Instead, it is an adjective modifying the noun "teacher." The predicate adjective, if present, would describe the subject "teacher" and come after a linking verb. However, in this sentence, there is no linking verb, and "new" is not describing the teacher's state or condition. Therefore, the statement "new" is the predicate adjective in this sentence is false.
