Am not, Isn't, Aren't (A1)

am의 부정문은 뒤에 not을 붙여요. I'm not = I am not이에요.

I'm not

• I am not here.
• I'm not a teacher.
• I'm not ready.
• Not "I amn't ready." — say "I'm not ready.". I의 부정형은 I'm not이에요. "amn't"라는 형태는 없어요.
• 해 보세요: ___ a teacher. (I'm not / I isn't / I aren't) 정답: I'm not — I'm not a teacher. I의 부정형은 I'm not이에요. isn't나 aren't는 쓰지 않아요.

isn't

is의 부정문은 뒤에 not을 붙여요. isn't = is not이에요.

• He isn't here.
• She isn't here.
• It isn't here.
• Not "He not is here." — say "He isn't here.". not은 is 뒤에 붙어서 isn't가 돼요. 앞에 오지 않아요.
• 해 보세요: Sofia ___ here. (isn't / aren't / not is) 정답: isn't — Sofia isn't here. Sofia는 한 사람(she)이므로 aren't가 아니라 부정어 isn't를 써요.

aren't

are의 부정문은 뒤에 not을 붙여요. aren't = are not이에요. You 뒤에는 항상 are / aren't를 써요.

• You aren't here.
• We aren't here.
• They aren't here.
• Not "They isn't here." — say "They aren't here.". we, they, you 뒤에는 aren't를 써요. isn't는 절대 쓰지 않아요.
• 해 보세요: They ___ students. (aren't / isn't / not are) 정답: aren't — They aren't students. They는 여러 명을 가리키므로 isn't가 아니라 부정어 aren't를 써요.

not은 어디에 들어갈까요?

not은 am / is / are 뒤에 와요.

• I am not ready.
• She is not ready.
• They are not ready.
• Not "She not is ready." — say "She is not ready.". be동사가 먼저 오고, 그 뒤에 not이 와요.
• 해 보세요: We ___ ready. (aren't / isn't / not are) 정답: aren't — We aren't ready. We는 여러 명을 뜻하므로 aren't를 써요. not은 are 뒤에 붙어요.
