0that's the first time I've seen Jan look embarrassed.
my question is, in this sentence, is the second part (which I didn't underline) a clause, if it is a clause why does the verb (look) not add s?
because i think i am confusing about the subject verb stuff, does that mean look is a noun in this sentence, so it does not need to add s
