past simple negative statements questions world of reading GOOD TO KNOW – NEGATIVE STATEMENTS Bisher hast du das past simple immer positiv (als bejahende Aussage) benutzt. z.B. Er ging über die Strasse. He walked across the street. Es gibt aber auch Situationen, in welchen man ausdrücken möchte, dass jemand etwas nicht getan hat ( verneinende Aussagen). Dann sprechen wir von negative statements im past simple. Um die Verneinung (negative statements) im past simple zu bilden, braucht es bei den allermeisten Verben das Hilfsverb do. Das past simple von do ist did. Um das Hilfsverb be in negative statements zu verwenden, muss das Wörtchen not ( nicht) angehängt werden. Daher wird aus did bei negative statements did not oder didnt. Person you he she it we you they Hilfsverb do im past simple Verb (Grundform) did not didnt walk like arrive speak Beispiele: Anna didnt speak English when she came to England, but now she speaks very well. No, he did not say that! They didnt know where the cinema was. Peter and did not steal the test results! did not kann zur Kurzform didnt zusammengezogen werden. Beim Schreiben der Kurzform didnt wird der weggekürzte Buchstaben (das von not) durch einen Apostroph ersetzt. Meistens verwendet man die Kurzform didnt. Manchmal möchte man das not aber betonen und schreibt es deswegen aus. 6th grade 2011 S.
