Semana 8 : Simple Present: negative and Questions

Forming a negative Negatives in the simple present Are formed by adding don't or doesn't before the simple form of the verb: Subject Auxiliary Example I don't I don't sing You don't You don't sing He doesn't He doesn't sing She doesn't She doesn't sing It doesn't It doesn't sing We don't We don't sing They don't They don't sing In other words, only third person singular subjects (he, she and it) have doesn't — the rest have don't 2. Forming a yes/no question Yes/no questions are also created using the auxiliary do. This time, the auxiliary is placed before the subject. Here are the rules: Auxiliary Subject Example Do I Do I sing? Do you Do you sing? Does he Does he sing? Does she Does she sing? Does it Does it sing? Do we Do we sing? Do they Do they sing? 3. Forming a WH- question WH- questions (using words such as “what”, “when”, and “where”) are also created by putting the auxiliary do before the subject. Then, you add the WH- word at the beginning. Here are some examples: Statement Yes/no question WH- question I sing Do I sing? What do I sing? You fight. Do you fight? Why do you fight? He lives Does he live? Where does he ?
