Negative to Affirmative

To change sentence from negative to affirmative without changing the meaning,we can do in the following way:-

 Affirmative:- He is honest

Negative:-We won't go.

Affirmative:- we will go.

Negative:-They hadn't done this. 

Affirmative:- they had done this.

Structure:-

Negative:-subject+auxiliary verb+not+verb+ext.

Affirmative:-subject+auxiliary verb+verb+ext.

b.if there is n't/not with to do auxiliary verb in the negative sentence,the n't/not with to do auxiliary verb should be deleted and the main will be used according to the tense of auxiliary verb to do.i.e.

Negative:-     We donot play ball.

Affirmative:-  We play ball.

Negative:-     He doesn't read a book.

Affirmative:-  He reads a book.

Negative:-     The baby didnot cry .

Negative:-      I have no umbrella

Affirmative:-   I have an umbrella.

Negative:-     He has no car

Affirmative:-  He has a car.

Conversion of Sentence

According to meaning there are five kinds of sentence.They assertive,interrogetive,imperative,optative and exclamatory.Every kinds of sentence are of two kinds.

2.Interrogative-affirmative and affirmative-interrogative

3.Negative-interrogative and interrogative-negative

4.Affirmative-negative interrogative and negative interrogative-affirmative

5.Assertive-imperative and imperative-assertive

6.Assertive -optative and optative-assertive

7 .Assertive-exclamatory and exclamatory-assertive

Affirmative to Negative

With a veiw to changing sentences from affirmative to negative without changing the meaning or to convert sentences from affirmative to negative we can go forward in the following way.

a.if there is any auxiliary verb (to be,to have,modals)in the sentence,we can add not/n't  after the auxiliary verb to convert  any affirmative to negative.i.e

Affirmative:- I can swim

Negative:-    I can't /cannot swim.

Affirmative:-He is honest

Negative:-  He isn't/is not honest.

Structure:-

Affirmative:- subject+auxiliary verb +ext.

Negative:-    subject+auxiliary verb +n't/not+ext.

Again we can convert a negative sentence into an affirmative sentence by deleting not/n't after the auxiliary verb

b.if there is no aux.verb in the sentence,we have to add to do +n't/not after the subject to convert  sentences from affirmative to negative.i.e.

Affirmative:-He reads a book

Negative:-  He doesn't/not read a book.

Affirmative:-They make a noise

Negative:-  They do n't/not make a noise.

Affirmative:-We sang a song

Negative:-  We did n't/not sing a song.

Structure:-

Affirmative:-subject+verb+ext.

Negative:-  subject+to do +n't/not +main verb +ext

When todo verb is used as an aux.verb,the basic form of verb will be used after that.

In order to convert a negative sentence with not/n't after to do as an auxiliary verb to an affirmative sentence,we have to delete to do+not and use the main verb according to the tense of to do.
