1. Present Tense
La plupart des auxiliaires ne changent pas au présent. Tous les sujets ont la même conjugaison - il
n'y a pas de -s à la troisième personne du singulier - pour ces auxiliaires : can, could, will,
would, should, must, may, might, ought to.
Exemple: I can - you can - he/she/it can - we can - you can - they can
2. Negative
→ Ajoutez NOT après l'auxiliaire (comme BE et HAVE GOT) pour ces auxiliaires : can, could,
will, would, should, must, may, might, be able to, be going to, ought to, be allowed to. Parfois,
il y a des formes contractées avec NOT.
→ Contractions
