Ontkennende zinnen

-Let's see what you already know:

'That is a great idea!'      =     _______________________________

'They are very nice'         =     _______________________________

What information did that give us?

Let's try and figure that out!

-The _______ changes in the sentence by adding not/ -n't

1. Noun (zelfstandig naamwoord)
2. John Cena (papapadapaaa)
3. Verb (werkwoord)
4. Adjective (bijvoeglijk naamwoord)

When to use negative questions?

-To ask rhetorical questions

eg: Isn't that just great!?

-To express surprise

eg. Aren't you meant to be at school?

When to use negative questions

-When you expect a positive answer to a question

eg. Wasn't that the best feeling ever?

-To express confusion

eg. Weren't those the same people we just saw?

Steps for making negative questions

1. What is the question (positive)?

2. Identify the verb(s)

3. Make it negative

4. complete the negative question by adding the rest of the sentence

Examples

Q: Has he got a new dog?

NQ: Hasn’t he got a new dog?

Q: Did you feel thrilled after the race?
