A mistake in a dictionary?
Could you tell me whether that's a mistake or some sort of exception? I found it in a Polish -> English dictionary.
"He had his business ran by a deputy while he was gone"
Why past participle "run" isn't put here?

You're correct; it should be "run".

Run!
It's actually quite a common mistake. Some native speakers say, He had his car took to the garage. (took not taken). Past simple forms often worm their way in where past participles should be.
Listen carefully to native speakers and see if you can catch those past simples creeping in!

I agree with Susan. It should be "run".
* Why wasn't the past participle "run" placed / written here instead?
