Tipos de Predicado e Núcleo

The video tutorial by Professor Alda introduces the concept of predicates in sentences, explaining their role in affirming something about the subject. It covers three types of predicates: nominal, verbal, and verbo-nominal, each with distinct characteristics. Predicate nominal focuses on states or qualities linked to the subject through a linking verb. Predicate verbal involves actions performed by the subject, often requiring complements. Predicate verbo-nominal combines elements of both, indicating an action and a state or quality. The tutorial provides examples and exercises to reinforce understanding.
