How do you change a declarative sentence to a negative sentence?
A declarative sentence can be either positive or negative in nature. A declarative sentence is simply a subject followed by a predicate. For example: I washed the car. 'I' would be the subject of the sentence and 'washed the car' is the predicate. The predicate is pretty much everything that follows the verb in English. It gets more complex if we bring in other languages. So back to our example we would negate the verb 'wash' which is in the past tense. I did not wash the car. In English we also have what we linguists like to call the "dummy do." It helps the verb to create the action. So you can also have things like: I sing. I do not sing. Which is present and habitual. Or John drives his mom's Subaru. (positive declarative habitual present) John can't drive his dad's Lexus. (negative declarative habitual present) He crashed his car. (positive declarative past) Therefore his dad won't let him drive the Lexus. (negative declarative habitual) Hope this helps.
How is grammatical aspect applied in a sentence?
Aspect is a grammatical use of verbs, related to but separate from "tense."Tense places an event on a time continuum in relation to the time of utterance, whereas the continuum of time for aspectis limited to the construction (the sentence) in question. In this regard, aspect deals with the "view" of an action, how it relates to the present.This is illustrated in English using separate tenses, helper verbs, and adverbs. The most obvious are the perfect and progressive, aka continuous, tenses.Compare the sentences:I eat (present, but indicates habitual rather than present)I am eating (present progressive)I have eaten (present perfect) - actually indicates a completed past actionI have been eating (present perfect progressive) - past continuous actionI am about to eat (a form of future action)I am going to eat (a form of future action)I eat every day (habitual action)Various languages may use separate verb forms, or prefixes, or suffixes, to indicate the aspect of an action. In English, the two major categories of aspect are Perfective (activity takes place)and Progressive (also continuous, an activity is still taking place). In certain languages, such as Russian, Hindi, a third category, Imperfective, also exists.* see the related link to English aspects and their uses* see the related question for sentences using the word "aspect"
