Could someone break this down grammatically for me?
One thing that I'd really miss is my mom's cooking.
Subject: One thing
verb: miss
noun: mom's cooking
Is that right? oNe more thing...what's the difference between a noun and a subject? Isn't a subject a noun?
one thing =subject
that I would really miss = restrictive relative clause, noun clause, appositive, modifies (define) the subject.
is = linking verb
my mom's cooking is the subject complement

It is called adjective relative clause that modifies one thing .
A noun can be a subject but a subject is not always be a noun. For example, a subject can be a noun clause as well.
