The Power of 'Did Not'

When we talk about things that happened in the past, we use did. But when we want to say something did not happen, we use:

did not + action word (base form)

Look at these examples from the story:

  • Kyrie did not come to the game. \rightarrow (He stayed home).
  • He did not want to go. \rightarrow (He said no).

Watch out! When you use did not, you don't change the action word.

Kyrie did not came (Wrong) ✅ Kyrie did not come (Right)

Quick Pattern: Person \rightarrow did not \rightarrow action

Example: I did not eat. / She did not play.
