PAST SIMPLE NEGATIONS

Negations in the past

Negations

Om een ontkenning te maken in de past simple heb je het hulpwerkwoord 'did' nodig, je zet namelijk altijd did not of de afkorting didn't voor het hele werkwoord zonder -ed:

I did not / didn't watch tv last night.

You did not / didn't watch tv last night.

He did not / didn't watch tv last night.

We did not / didn't watch tv last night.

You did not / didn't watch tv last night.

They did not / didn't watch tv last night.

Uitzondering met vorm van 'to be'

Als er een vorm van to be (was/were) in de zin staat:

Zet n't (not) achter het werkwoord.

I was sleepy > I wasn't sleepy.

You were too late > You were not too late.
