LEARNING CONVERSION OF SENTENCE

Conversion of Sentence

Negative to Interrogative


In order to convert a negative sentence into an interrogative one,we can do in the following 
way:-

a.if there is not with an aux. Verb(to be,to have,modals)in a sentence,we can use aux.verb with not before the subject if the subj. Is a noun and if the subj. Is a personal pronoun(I,we,he,she, it,they,you) ,the aux .verb will be used before the subject and not after the subj.To avoid this hazard,we can use contruction of not with aux.verb before the subject.For the above cases,we should put a question mark at the end of the sentence.i.e.


Rana is not honest.
Is not Rana honest?
or Isn't Rana honest?
He was not well.
Was he not well?
or Wasn't he well?


b.If there is not with to do verb ,we can place to do verb before subj. For not will be used acording to rules of subj. mentioned in (a).we can use contraction of not with to do verb.i.e.


Karim does not play.
 Does not karim play?
 Or Doesn't Karim play?
He did not go.
Did he not go?
 Or Didn't he go?
