It is getting cold. The day grew shorter, the nights longer.
3) The compound nominal predicate of remaining. The most typical link- verb of this kind is the verb “to remain”. Some other verbs are also used a like- verb of remoing: to continue, to keep, to stag.E.g. she remained silent: the weather continued fine. He kept quiet. She stayed motionless.
In this case we can speak of a fourth type of the compound predicate- the compound nominal predicate of seeming or appearing. E.g. The patient seems better now. She appeared displeased. The task seemed very easy.
c) The compound verbal predicate can be divided into two types according to the meaning of the finite verb:
1) the compound verbal modal predicate;
2)the compound verbal aspect predicate;
The compound verbal predicate is expressed by two verbs: one verb in the finite from, the other in the form of an infinitive or gerund which denotes the action performed by the subject. A compound verbal predicate which consists of a modal verb by an infinitive as a modal compound verbal predicate. The modal verb shows that the speaker considers the action denoted by the infinitive as possible, the action denoted by the infinitive as possible, doubtful, advisable, etc.
A compound verbal predicate which consists of a finite verb indicating the beginning, duration, end or repetition of an action followed by an infinitive or gerund is an aspective compound verbal predicate: e.g. I can do it myself (ability). You may open the window (permission). I have to go there (obligation). She went on writing her exercise. She began to transcribe her shorthand notes on the typewriter.
She had stopped asking me about the time.
The Double Predicate.
In the sentence “The Moon rose red” we have on the one hand a verbal predicate expressed by the verb “rose”- a verb of full meaning which denotes a certain process performed by the subject; on the other hand we have the adjective “red” which qualifies the subject in the same way as a predicative qualifies the subject in the nominal predicate: the moon was red.
Thus if the sentence “The Moon rose red” we have a special type of predicate which presents two predicates: a) a verbal predicate, b) a nominal predicate.
The Moon rose red->The Moon was red when it rose.
Such a predicate may be called the double predicate: she stood pale before me. The bird fell dead to the ground. He entered excited and eager to tell them about it.
