how to make questions and negative in the present simple

Slide 1 - Diapositive

The Present Simple
Questions

To make a present simple question, you have to put the verb do in front of the sentence:

 I like ice cream.     becomes      Do I like ice cream?

If the subject is a he, she or it, you have to use does. Also, look at what happens with the +s of the original verb.

Bob plays football.   becomes   Does Bob play football?

Slide 11 - Question ouverte

The Present Simple
Questions

The verb 'to be' is a special one. 
If the first verb in the sentence is am, is, or are, you switch it with the subject.

She is very beautiful.  becomes  Is she very beautiful?

'Is' switched places with the subject. In these cases, you don't use 'do' or 'doesn't'.


Slide 12 - Diapositive

She is my best friend.
she

Do
Does
Is

The Present Simple
Negations

Now you know how to make a normal present simple sentence and questions in the present simple.

Now we are going to look at negations.


Slide 15 - Diapositive

The Present Simple
Negations

Negations tell you that something is not happening. 
You can see the word not in negations, but almost always as a short form n't, as in don't or doesn't.

An example of a negation is:

                             She doesn't see very well. 


Slide 16 - Diapositive

The Present Simple
Negations

So you make a negation by adding don't or doesn't to the sentence. Think about the SHIT Rule!
So not like this:
                                        I like not cookies. 

But like this:
                                       I don't like cookies 


Slide 17 - Diapositive

The Present Simple
Negations

Look at what happens to the verb in this sentence when we turn it into a negation:

                                 He plays video games every day.

                        He doesn't play video games every day.

The +s disappears after doesn't. The same happened with the questions!


Slide 18 - Diapositive

The Present Simple




Negations

In the next exercise, try to turn the normal present simple into a negation. Pay attention to capital letters, full stops and the SHIT Rule.
                                     Use short forms!

Slide 19 - Diapositive

The girls wear the same dresses.

Slide 20 - Question ouverte

The boy always cleans his plate after eating.

Slide 21 - Question ouverte

They give out flyers every morning.

Slide 22 - Question ouverte

The Present Simple
Negations

Again, the verb 'to be' is special. 
If the first verb in the sentence is am, is or are, you can just add not. You don't need do or don't in that case.

I am an English teacher. 
Becomes 
I am not an English teacher.
