Avoceyemalincarmel: Negative forms

''Hello Language lovers.''

I'm Y Carmel. Linguist and interpret.

As language teacher i specially care about Grammar.

There is no limit in learning languages.people learn language using different methods,Techniques and adapt themselves using whatever they have .But the most important thing in learning language if you really want to have great speech and accent,you'll have to master grammar.Trust me even native speakers,most of them learn grammar just because they want to sound great speaker.So if you are a newbie in English language learning,then welcome English grammar.

And again i stand for correction and feedback about any of my explanations.

There is actually an English language expert that i do appreciate

=== '''''Negative sentences''''' ===
We can form negative sentences using any tense.We just have to understand the general notion.

Subject +Auxiliary+not+base Verb (FIY The base verb of a sentence is just the verb without "the")

{| class="wikitable sortable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"
|+
!'''''Subject +Auxilary+not+bv'''''
!'''Long form'''
!'''short form'''
!'''Contextual situation'''
!
|-
|'''''Present'''''
|I do not go
|I don't go
|No buddy, I actually do not go there on Monday/No buddy, I actually don't go there on Monday
|
|-
|'''''Present perfect'''''
|I have not gone
|I haven't gone
|I have not gone there so far/I haven't gone there so far
|
|-
|'''''Passe'''''
|Ididn't go
|I didn't go
|I did not go there yesterday/Ididn't go there yesterday
|
|-
|'''''Past perfect'''''
|I had not gone there
|I hadn't gone there
|I really wish i hadn't gone there
|
|-
|'''''Future'''''
|I will not go
|I won't go
|I will not go there tomorrow/I won't go there tomorrow
|
|-
|'''''Conditianal Present'''''
|I would not go
|I would't go
|Personally i would not go there/Personally i wouldn't go there
|
|-
|'''''Conitional perfect'''''
|I would not have gone
|I wouldn't have gone
|Maybe i would't have gone there...
|
|}
You see,It pretty easy you do not have to focus on how to form negative sentences for all the tenses.You only have to understand the basics,The main form and the tense you are going to use.

=== '''Forming Negative sentences using modal verbs''': ===
Can,Must,May are modal verbs that have equivalences

{| class="wikitable"
!
!'''''Equivalence'''''
!'''''Short form and long form'''''
!'''''Contextual situation'''''
|-
|'''''Can'''''
|To be able to
|You can not do that/You can't do that
|We received concise order you can't do that,give a loan to that client without collateral
|-
|'''''May'''''
|To be allowed to
|You may not go/You are not allowed to do that
|your parents may not be home this evening and untill further notice you are not allowed to party at night
|-
|'''''Must'''''
|To have to
|You must not go/You don't have to do that
|You mustn't throw the banana skin on the road,God what are you thinking?
