Bazı durumlarda bu takı eklenirken fiil kökünde veya ekde değişiklikler olur. Ayrıntılı bilgi için Eğer düzensiz (irregular) ise 2. hali kullanılır (She drank two bottles of milk this morning.). Fiillerin 2. ve 3. halleri hakkında detaylı bilgiyi buradan edinebilirsiniz. Daha sonra cümleyi tamamlarız.

Olumsuz (Negative) cümle kurarken kuralımız;

''Subject + didn't + verb1 + complement''

şeklindedir. Özne ne olursa olsun, fiilimizden önce "didn't" olumsuzluk önekini getiririz. Daha sonra fiilimizin yalın (infinitive) halini kullanırız.
