GRAMMATICA INGLESE

FORME INTERROGATIVA E NEGATIVA DEL SIMPLE PAST TENSE

Indice Grammatica

La frase negativa e interrogativa del Simple Past si forma con l'ausiliare did seguito dalla forma base del verbo principale. 

FORMA NEGATIVA

Le negative del Simple Past sono formate aggiungendo didn't (informale) o did not (formale) davanti alla forma base del verbo. Il verbo essere fa eccezione, infatti č necessario aggiungere n't (informale) o not (formale) dopo was o were.

FORMA INTERROGATIVA

Anche le interrogative vengono formate usando l'ausiliare did. Questa volta perņ, l'ausiliare viene posto davanti al soggetto. Il verbo essere fa eccezione, infatti č necessario porre il verbo essere davanti al soggetto, senza usare did.
