Grammar explanation needed for Japanese sentence! Linking two verbs
I wrote a sentence earlier and it was corrected into something else. I'm quite confused at the grammar point and I hope someone can explain it to meThis is what I wrote 昨日「天狼: Sirius the Jaegar」を見ること終わった。昨日「天狼: Sirius the Jaegar 」を見ること終わりました。And it was corrected to this昨日「天狼: Sirius the Jaegar 」を見終わった。昨日「天狼: Sirius the Jaegar 」を見終わりました。Can someone explain why it is just 見 itself and not 見ること? What is the grammar point that I should use/know when I want to connect two verbs together? I thought I needed to use こと

Answer

Your sentences are wrong only because of sytactical reason.

NG: 昨日「天狼: Sirius the Jaegar」を見ること終わった。
NG: 昨日「天狼: Sirius the Jaegar 」を見ること終わりました。
OK: 昨日「天狼: Sirius the Jaegar 」を見終わった。
OK: 昨日「天狼: Sirius the Jaegar 」を見終わりました。

見 (み）：　連用形 of 見る (still a verb)
見ること＝ 見る＋こと：連体形 of 見る + thing  (a noun、体言)

終わる、終える demands 連用形.
So using 見ること is wrong.

※
やり＋終える
書き＋終える
食べ＋終える
し＋終える
歩き＋終える
They are all 連用形，not　連体形.

※ The followings are of the same structure as 見終わる／見終える
見過ぎる = 見+過ぎる（you see it too much)
見抜く　= 見＋抜く（see through, find out)
やり＋抜く = やり＋抜く （did it through)
