celebrates
- 1Third-person singular simple present of celebrate.
Each spring, the community celebrates the founding of the village with a parade.
He quietly celebrates every small victory rather than waiting for the big ones.
Note
The -s form follows he, she, it or any singular noun subject, while every other present-tense person keeps bare celebrate. It carries all the verb's meanings, so it may take an object or stand alone: the town celebrates its founding, a priest celebrates the rite, or a winning team simply celebrates. Only the joyful-activity meaning works without an object. Honoring, observing and performing a rite all need one.
