Simple sentence structure

It was strange.

In this sentence, it(subject) + was(verb)+strange(?)

What does strange act as in this sentence? Is it an adverb?

Thanks

"strange" is an adjective in your sentence. It functions as complement to the verb "was". It's a subjective predicative since it relates to the subject of the sentence.
