⚡ The 'Not' Switch

In English, we use not to change a 'yes' idea into a 'no' idea. Look at how the article does this:

  • Jaxson likes Trump → Abdul does not.
  • The injury is bad → The injury is not bad.

How to use it:

  1. If you have a simple describing word (like bad or happy), just put not before it.
  2. If you are talking about an action (like like), use does not or do not.

🦵 Action Words (Past vs. Now)

Notice how the story changes words to show when things happened:

Past (Finished) \rightarrow Now (Happening)

  • Played \rightarrow Plays
  • Walked \rightarrow Walks
  • Checked \rightarrow Checks

Tip: Adding -ed to the end of a word usually tells us the action is over.
