Por que no puedo abreviar las negaciones ?

Andrea Venegas

April 2024

Hemos revisado los ejercicios y es posible ingresar la forma abreviada de las negaciones. A veces ocurre en algunos computadores que no tienen apostrofe o lo reconoce como tilde, tal vez es eso lo que impide ingresar la forma abreviada.

Muchas gracias por comentar.

¡Hola! Nuestro artículo se enfoca en el uso del pasado simple del verbo “to be” en inglés, incluyendo formas afirmativas, negativas e interrogativas. No hay ninguna mención del verbo “to have” ni del pasado simple de “to have”.

En base a esta observación, parece que te has confundido con otro material. El artículo se centra exclusivamente en el verbo “to be” en pasado simple y no aborda el uso de “to have”, ni como verbo principal ni como auxiliar.

Hola, creo que el error que he encontrado es en la parte teórica del negativo. Ahí aparecen dos reglas de uso “Sujeto + did + not + have + …./ Sujeto + had + not + ….” si bien la primera hace referencia al título del contenido “pasado simple del VERBO TO HAVE” considero que la segunda regla no se debería agregar al tema ya que hace referencia al “AUXILIAR HAVE” ya que son dos tiempos diferente y podrían causar confusión. (Lo mismo va para la parte interrogativa).
