Today, let's learn about NEGATIVE SENTENCES.

*A sentence having not or no in it is called a negative sentence.

Let's go through some of the rules:

 A. Compare the following sentences:

1. I am sad.                                .............        I am not sad.

2. We not tired.                          .............        We are not tired.

3. The money was enough.       ............  The money was not enough  

-When the verb is some form of be (is, are,am,was,were), we put not after the verb to make the sentence negative.

B. Now compare these sentences:

1. He has some money.          ..............   He has no money.

2. We have a holiday today.   ..............   We have no holiday today.

-When the verb is have, has or had, we use no to make the sentence negative.

C. Compare these sentences: 

1. She is skipping                 .............    She is not skipping

2. Neelu can run fast            .............    Neelu cannot run fast

3. They have arrived            .............    They have not arrived

- When the verb is made up of two or more words, we put not after first word to make the sentence negative.

D. Compare these sentences:

1. Leave the room.             .........       Do not/Don't leave the room.

2. Sit down.                        .........       Do not/Don't sit down.

- To make a command sentence negative, we put do not/ don't in the beginning of the sentence.

REMEMBER:

Formation of negatives

- is, are, am, was, were                ................    not after the verb

- have, has, had                            ................   have/has/ had no

- verb made up of two or more words .......... not after the first word

- commands                                  ................  Do not/ Don't in the 

                                                                         beginning
