Complements are usually used to further explain a subject or an object to complete the meaning of something. An example would be "Sheila is a professor". In this sentence, Sheila is the subject, is is the verb, and professor is a subject complement.

@@LynettePretoriusMonash Madam, my first doubtful idiom is; "Walk on air". What does it mean? How to use it in a sentence? Please try to make me understand about it by means of some particular examples.
lucie hong - the first part of the sentence is correct (John drove a car). The second part of the sentence is missing something an article - it should be "before the sun set".
If you are referring to his habits I would recommend: “John *always* drove *his* car before sunsets” If you’re referring to a specific event I would recommend “John drove a car before *sunset.” (No “s” at the end) The difference between ‘sunset’ and ‘the sun set’ has to do with whether you are referring to a time of day (sunset) or an event (the setting of the sun).
