A sentence without a subject and verb is called a fragment. Fragments are incomplete sentences that don't express a complete thought.
"Was" is the past tense form of the verb "to be." It is a linking verb that helps connect the subject of a sentence to a noun or adjective that describes or renames the subject.
The subject is he, and the verb is was.
The verb is the action word in a sentence that describes what the subject is doing.
"Is" is a linking verb. Linking verbs connect the subject of a sentence to a noun, pronoun, or adjective that describes or renames the subject. In the sentence "She is happy," "is" links "she" to "happy."
The verb in the sentence is "was," which is the linking verb connecting the subject "neighborhood" to the subject complement "dark."
