"This needs reviewed." vs "This needs to be reviewed."? [duplicate]
As in the title: "This needs reviewed." vs "This needs to be reviewed."
Are either of these grammatically incorrect ? And/or is one preferable to the other ? I'm not quite sure what area this falls under, so I'm having a hard time finding the correct references elsewhere. Sources preferred if possible please.
Thank you
Solution 1:
"This needs reviewed" is incorrect. You would have to make it present tense. Therefore, "This needs to be reviewed" is correct.
