Talk:Object complement

To whom it may concern:
No way am I interested in reading whatever Quirk, Randolph, Sidney Greenbaum, Jan Svartvik, & Geoffrey Leech wrote about this topic back in 1985, cited in the article as this: To the extent that the cite somehow relates to an object complement, where's the quote? Otherwise, how do we know that the cite validates this article, which relates solely to a transitive object complement or to a stative object complement (i.e., traditionally known as a subject complement) and not the notion of a prepositional object complement? (E.g. "To whom it may concern" ...) For those of you keeping score, a phrase such as "for life" that complements "friend" in the article's "He considers you a friend" example becomes, by extension, an object complement complement in "He considers you a friend for life." Readers, beware of naive linguistic contrivances. --Kent Dominic·(talk) 17:11, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
