Which word from this sentence is used as a linking I have no clue what any of stuff under here nevertheless am pretty sure can figure it out?

The linking verb in the sentence "I have no clue what any of this stuff is under here, nevertheless, I am pretty sure I can figure it out" is "am".

Here's why:

* Linking verbs connect the subject of a sentence to a word or phrase that renames or describes the subject.

* In this sentence, "I" is the subject, and "pretty sure I can figure it out" is the phrase that describes the subject's state of being.

* The verb "am" acts as the bridge between the two, linking the subject to the description.
