负面陈述

消极句子是用来说某件事情是不真实的。有几种不同的方法来创造否定句子。

大多数句子都可以通过使用帮助动词 do以及在主动词前面的 not字来变成否定的陈述。通常被缩短为don't。比如说。 I don't eat healthy food。

一个句子也可以通过添加像never, nobody, no one和nowhere这样的词而变得消极。

有动词的句子，如：

• be
• do
• will
• shall
• may
• must

只要在动词后面加上not，就可以成为一个否定句。 下表显示了do, be, can的否定形式，以及任何适用的简写形式。

	do	be	can
I	do not, don't	am not	cannot, can't
you	do not, don't	are not, aren't	cannot, can't
he	does not, doesn't	is not, isn't	cannot, can't
she	does not, doesn't	is not, isn't	cannot, can't
it	does not, doesn't	is not, isn't	cannot, can't
we	do not, don't	are not, aren't	cannot, can't
they	do not, don't	are not, aren't	cannot, can't

另一种制造否定句子的方法是在句子中的名词前加上no。
