 Past Simple in ontkennende zinnen

Past simple negatives

I didn't like dogs.

The teacher didn't talk all day.

The woman didn't scream very loudly.

Look! Sorry, I didn't see it.

She didn't swim a lot in her spare time.

The math teacher didn't teach us much.

Past Simple in vraagzinnen

Het allerbelangrijkste om te weten over vragen in de Past Simple is dat een vraag begint met “did” (of een wh-vraagwoord gevolgd door “did”), dan volgt het onderwerp en hierna volgt het hele werkwoord:

Did - onderwerp - hele werkwoord

Omdat het hulpwerkwoord (“do” --> "did") al in de verleden tijd staat hoeft/mag het werkwoord NIET meer in de verleden tijd staan!

Je zegt dus: Did I work yesterday?

en NIET Did I worked yesterday?

Uitzondering:

Het werkwoord “to be” heeft in de verleden tijd 2 vormen: was & were. Wanneer “was” of “were” in de zin staat kun je hier de vraag mee beginnen en heb je geen “did” nodig.

Bv. She was ill yesterday. 

Was she ill yesterday?

En dus NIET: Did she is ill yesterday?

 Examples Past Simple in vraagzinnen

Past simple questions
