It is a student that I am
Hi again teachers!
We Korean learn that adjective vomplement cannot be emphasized in so called 'it ~ that' construction.
1. It is smart that he is. (X)
Then how about noun complement and dubject in 2 and 3?
2. It is a student thst I am. (?)
2. It is he that is smart. (?)
As always thank you teachers do much.

anonymous It is a student that I am. It is he that is smart. Those are both OK grammatically; however, you will find that they are not at all useful in real conversations.
