Exclamation Complement "What"
Menurut buku Pathway to English 1
When you say or shout suddenly out of surprise or excitement, you express an exclamation. you can use it to express compliments, by saying "what" or "what a/an" followed by a noun phrase. In writing, you put an exclamation mark (!) at the end of an exclamation.
Jadi, jika berkata secara tiba-tiba karena terkejut, itulah yg disebut exclamation, dalam membentuk exclamation complement dibutuhkan kata "what" atau "what a/an" diikuti dengan noun phrase, serta diakhiri oleh tanda seru (!).
For example:
- What a beautiful dress! (singular noun) (Sungguh indah gaunnya!)
- What beautiful costumes! (plural) (Sungguh indah kostumnya!)
What + a/an + (adjective) + singular countable noun + !
e.g.: What a gorgeous dress!
What + a/an + (adjective) + noun + subject + verb + !
e.g.: What a nice house you bought!
What + (adjective) + ucountable/plural noun + !
How + adjective/adverb + subject + verb + !
e.g.: How well she sings!
How + Subject + linking verb + !
e.g.: How interesting this film is!
How + adjective + !
e.g.: How gorgeous!
Note: Jika mengganti orang/benda yang di bicarakan, maka gunakan objek "pronoun": 'How kind of him!' (tidak 'he' tetapi "him")
