Why does this happen?
Hello.
First off all, please take a look at this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MBC_2
Well, now in the middle of the first line, there is this sentence: During its debut, it broadcast http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film and...
So generaly, when we use he, she, it, we should add a s/es at the end of the sentence. Like these:
He goes to school. She coocks the dinner. And so on..
So I think there should be: it broadcasts..... So can anyone tell me why "s" was not followed after the verb?
Thank you.
JM.
