Сокращенные формы: did not = didn’t [dIdnt]
Past Indefinite образуется:
Для правильных глаголов путем прибавления во всех лицах окончания -ed к форме инфинитива, которое произносится [d] после гласных и звонких согласных звуков, [t] после глухих согласных звуков, [Id] после d и t.
Группа глаголов, называемых неправильными, образуют Past Indefinite по-особому. Эти формы надо заучивать. Форма глаголов в Past Indefinite обычно называется II-й формой глагола.
Вопросительная и отрицательная формы как правильных, так и неправильных глаголов образуются при помощи вспомогательного глагола do в прошедшем времени - did и инфинитива смыслового глагола (без to). При этом смысловой глагол теряет окончание –ed, которое переходит к вспомогательному do, образуя форму did.
Did you see him yesterday? - Yes, I did. |
Вы его видели вчера? - Да. |
Did you hear the news? - No, I did not. |
Вы слышали новость? - Нет. |
Отрицательная форма строится так:
I did not (didn’t) see him yesterday. |
Я не видел его вчера. |
She did not (didn’t) know this. |
Она не знала этого. |
