| vocabulary扩展 | Not is a powerful word. When Hamlet says "to be or not to be," he is questioning whether he should live or die, the inverse of living. Just be careful of what's called a "double negative," where you use not with another negating word and end up negating your negation. If you say you don't know nothing about something, that means you do know something. Not is often contracted as in don't, or isn't. |
| 柯林斯解释 | Not is often shortened to n't in spoken English, and added to the auxiliary or modal verb. For example, ‘did not’ is often shortened to ‘didn't’. not在口语中常略作 n't,用在助动词或情态动词后,例如:did not 常略作 didn't。 1 [NEG 否定词](与动词连用构成否定句)不,非,没有 You use not with verbs to form negative statements.
