事 and の with verbs

[bryantfstephens2396]

Hello all!

So I understand that if you want to say I like, dislike, are good at, or unskilled at you use the short form of the verb ( plus whatever and its particle before it) plus のが好き/嫌い/上手/へた。The end adjectives can be change to any other verb as needed. (Please correct me if I am wrong) What I am wondering is if you can us this verb+の　structure with verbs at the end instead of adjectives? When would you use 事？In this situation or no?

So if I said I need to do my homework which is right?
私は宿題をするのがいる。　or
私は宿題をする事がいる。

Also if you could give me more examples of both, thank you!

Interesting question. It might be grammatically possible, but not natural IMO.

If you want to say "I need to do my homework", in Japanese you'd say "have to" instead.
So:
宿題をしなければならない。
宿題をしなきゃ

Also

宿題をすべき
宿題をしないと（ダメ）

WalterWillsさん、ericfさん　コメントありがとうございます。
bryantfstephens2396さん　sorry for having kept you waiting for the answer.
As WalterWills-san said, "have to" often covers the meaning of "I need to do ..."
So these are equivalent Japanese:
宿題をしなければならない。 (plain form)
宿題をしなきゃ (casual expression)
Although 宿題をすべき and 宿題をしないと（ダメ） are correct Japanese, they means "should" rather than "have to."
I hope this helps and thank you for helping each other.
