You are here because you passed the practice test. Well done!
On this page, you will find more material on questions and negations with "to be" and "to have got".
So far, we have discussed positive questions and negations. We will now get into negative questions, combining the two!
If you want to turn a question with "to be" into a negative question you can change it like this:
A. Am I very tall?
B. Am I not very tall?
The place of the negation, not, is still the same.
Turning a question with "to have got" into a negative question:
A. Has she got a new skateboard?
B. Has she not got a new skateboard?
As you can see, as with the negation the place of the word not is still the same - right behind our subject "she".
You can also make sentences with "to be" and "to have got" shorter:
"To be": + not after the verb to make a negation.
| I | am | ► | I | 'm |
| You | are | ► | You | 're |
| He/she | is | ► | He/she | 's |
| It | is | ► | It | 's |
| We | are | ► | We | 're |
| You | are | ► | You | 're |
| They | are | ► | They | 're |
"To have got": be careful! If you make the negation short not becomes a part of have/has!
