[ourwaltz]

why is is "czyta" used instead of "czytają"?

[immery]

because "społeczeństwo" is singular neuter. Ono czyta.

[TrevorChri14]

Ah, this is such a middle-class, middle-thinking statement, that has been repeated since the dawn of books ;)

[sebvaillancourt]

following the discussion about "the police are/is". since society is a collective noun, why is it not "the society are"?

[hydratedbirb]

"our society reads no books" was not accepted?

[alik1989]

Sounds fine, added.

[Xuu37]

Książek is genitive?

[Jellei]

Yes indeed.
