Question

2. Korea hosted the World Cup with Japan in 2002.

3. Korea and Japan co-hosted the World Cup in 2002.

4. Korea hosted the World Cup in 2002 with Japan.

(Are all the same and grammatical?)

Answer 1

They are all grammatically correct but they are NOT the same.

hosted = only one country hosted usually or the World Cup was with Japan and Korea hosted.

co-hosted = now there are two countries or both Korea and Japan were hosts.
