    Do not add an extra '-es' to the plural; 'anuncios' is already plural.

    Missing the definite article; it changes the meaning to an indefinite 'a ad'.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking countries, 'anuncios' can refer to TV commercials, radio spots, or public notices. When talking about TV, people often say 'ver los anuncios' before a program starts. In formal contexts, 'anuncios' may mean official notices posted in a plaza or on a website, so choose the verb (ver vs. leer) accordingly.
