For the negative and interrogative simple past form of “to do” as an ordinary verb, use the auxiliary “did”, e.g. We didn’t do our homework last night. The negative of “have” in the simple past is usually formed using the auxiliary “did”, but sometimes by simply adding not or the contraction “n’t”.
Keeping this in view, did in interrogative sentences?
If the verb is ‘normal’, the interrogative is formed with the auxiliary do/does/did. As always after an auxiliary verb, the verb is added in the infinitive without to: Do you like that album? Did she see the movie?
- I saw a movie yesterday.
- I didn’t see a play yesterday.
- Last year, I traveled to Japan.
- Last year, I didn’t travel to Korea.
- Did you have dinner last night?
- She washed her car.
- He didn’t wash his car.
Just so, how do we use simple past in affirmative interrogative and negative sentences?
Remember that in interrogative and negative ideas, it is necessary to use the auxiliary DID, when you have DID, the verb goes in simple form not in past tense. On the other hand, in affirmative ideas, the verb goes in simple past tense and you do not need an auxiliary.
How do you change a past sentence to an interrogative sentence?
By placing the verb before the subject, a declarative sentence can be transformed into an interrogative. If there are two verbs in a declarative sentence, it can be modified into an interrogative by placing the subject between the two verbs.
