NEGATIVE SENTENCES

Negative sentences are formed usually by using “no” and “not” in the sentences.

1. Sentences with verbs to be (am, is, are, was, were,) as Principal verb are made negative usually by placing not after the verb :

I am not a student.

We are not students.

You are not a doctor.

You are not doctors.

He is not a businessman.

They are not businessman.

He was not happy.

The boys were not happy.

I was not ill.

You were not at home.

Sometimes “no” is also used :

There is no student in the classroom.

He is no friend of mine.

Miss Green is no beauty.

2. Verbs to have (has, have, had) as Principal verb take no after them to form negatives :

I have no car.

We have no house.

You have no sister.

You had no brother.

He has no servants.

They have no friend here.

I had no money.

We had no dog.

Amit had no enemy.

They had no servants.

Note : Sentences with verbs “to have” (has, have, had) as Principal verb also can be made negative by placing “do not” or “does not” in the Present Tense and “did not” in the Past Tense before them. The form of the main verb remains unchanged in such cases are given below :

I do not have any car.

(or, I have no car.)

We do not have any house.

(or We have no house.)

You do not have any car.

They do not have any friend here.

(or, They have no friend here.)

He does not have any car.

(or, He has no car.)

Amit did not have a dog.

(or, Amit had no dog.)

I did not have any money.

(or, I had no money.)

3. Sentences with verbs other than to be and to have as Principal verb can be made negative by placing do not or does not in the Present Tense and did not in the Past Tense before them. The form of the main verb remains unchanged in such cases :

I do not know him.

We do not like him.

He does not help his brother.

They do not read in this school.

You did not come yesterday.

We did not play.
