Introduction

Jednostavno sadašnje vrijeme [present simple] je glagolsko vrijeme koje se koristi za izricanje radnji koje se redovito događaju i stalno ponavljaju.

Kada se koristi u negativnom obliku, glagol negira nešto o subjektu.

Form

Present simple u potvrdnom obliku ima ovu strukturu:
Subject + do/does + not + verb + …

  • Do/does: treće lice jednine se mijenja iz do u does;
  • Glagol: osnovni oblik glagola ostaje isti (bez promjena);
  • Nepravilni oblik glagola biti: I am not – you aren’t – he isn’t…
Subject do/does + not Verb Short form
I do not work don’t
You do not work don’t
He does not work doesn’t
She does not work doesn’t
It does not work doesn’t
We do not work don’t
You do not work don’t
They do not work don’t

Use

Present simple u negativnom obliku koristimo za negiranje:

  1. Budućih događaja (planova s već određenim datumom);
  2. Voznih redova (planiranih događaja s točnim vremenom);
  3. Navika/rutina (nešto što se događa u više navrata u ovom trenutku);
  4. Činjenica (stvari koje su istinite, navedene);
  5. Stalnih situacija (koje se trenutno odvijaju i koje će se dogoditi u budućnosti);
  6. Obećanja;
  7. Uputa (narudžba);
  8. Završenih radnji u trenutku pripovijedanja (komentara);
  9. Neformalnog pripovijedanja (kod pričanja priča).

Summary

Jednostavno sadašnje vrijeme [present simple] u negativnom obliku koristimo za negiranje događaja koji se pojavljuju stalno i redovito.

Struktura:
Subject + do/does + not + verb + … (does za treće lice jednine)

Naprimjer:
— “I don’t work on important projects.” =
— “She doesn’t work on important projects.” =

NAPOMENA: Glagol biti je nepravilan glagol stoga ne prati opće pravilo tvorbe negativnih oblika. Nakon glagola jednostavno dodajemo not.
