👉 In linguistics and philosophy, a predicative is a type of predicate that can be used to express or describe an attribute or characteristic. Predicatives are often used in conjunction with other words to form compound sentences or expressions, such as "He has a red shirt." For example, if we have the sentence: "The cat has a red tail," then the predicative "has" is used to indicate that the subject (the cat) possesses an attribute (a red tail).
