Contraction/ I'm not
Forum > English only || BottomMessage from mrenglish2015 posted on 14-02-2015 at 10:30:32 (D | E | F)
Hello ,
could you please help me with this question ?
is there a contraction of '' I'm not'' like is not [ isn't] and are not [ aren't] or not
i'm not = i amn't or i'm not
Thanks for anyone who will reply to me .
2. we know we use ''they'' instead of anyone [ any body ] in the question tag, but do we use negative or affirmative question with it?
...anyone can stay here , can't they or can they ?

Hello!
n't doesn't apply to am.
I'm not /XXXXXX no other contracted form
You're not/ you aren't
He's not/He isn't
we, you they're not / We/You/They aren't
ain't exists (from I to they) but it is colloquial.
any in an affirmative sentence is not negative, so:
Anybody can come to this meeting, can't they ?
Anything affects him, doesn't it ?
