My T.V.

The T.V. is broken, so I think I must get in a TV mechanic.

The T.V. does not have a good picture. Perhaps, some mistakes have been crept in inside the T.V.

For the last few days, my T.V. does not have good reception. So I am now off to T.V. station to enquire of the same.

My T.V. does not have a good picture because the cable which comes from T.V. station has come loose somewhere.

Please correct my sentences.

Thank you.

I think "my TV" is a singular subject, so the verb should be "has", but you have said "my TV does not have a good picture" is correct. Shouldn't it be "TV does not has a good picture"?

Gary, I often worry that you are not making progress with this learning method you have chosen.

The third person singular '-s' is always attached to the finite verb-- in this case, the operator 'does'.

I have, he has
I don't have, he doesn't have
