see also すべき a contraction of する + べき (contributor: Amatuka)

does not always come before the cupola (da, desu etc) (contributor:
Amatuka)

My preference would be to have the entry as べき, but it's your database.

Formed from Verb + beki
Past tense, negative etc are possible.
V = verb (contributor: Amatuka)

I was just going through the grammer 'bekida'. I find this grammer is
figuring in both level 3 and level 2. I find that the expalnations are
contradictory to each other. I feel the entry in level 3 should be deleted
. (contributor: prahlada)

this is the same べき that is in level 3 the only diffrence is the だ
sentence final, which has nothing to do with the should or ought to part of
the grammar. it is just the casual sentance ending. so I think this entry
should be merged with the level 3 and then deleted.
