El pasado simple es la forma básica de los tiempos verbales en pasado en Ingles.  Lo usamos para hablar sobre acciones completadas en un tiempo anterior al presente, puede ser un pasado reciente o lejano en el tiempo.  Cuando cambiamos una oración afirmativa en pasado simple a la forma negativa del pasado simple usamos la siguiente estructura:

Sujeto + did + not + verbo (en su forma básica)+ ...

Esto se aplica tanto en los verbos regulares ('to work') como en los irregulares ('to go').
