Penjelasan
- did dipakai untuk semua subjek: Did he…? Did they…?
- Setelah did/didn't, kata kerja tidak lagi berbentuk lampau: I didn't go, bukan I didn't went.
- Jawaban pendek: Yes, I did. / No, she didn't.
- Kalimat dengan was/were tidak memakai did: Were you tired? bukan Did you were tired?
- Jika who/what menjadi subjek, tidak perlu did: Who called you? What happened?

Pertanyaan seputar bab ini
Kenapa setelah did kata kerjanya tidak lampau?
Karena tanda lampau sudah dibawa oleh did. Bahasa Inggris tidak menandai waktu dua kali dalam satu kata kerja.
Apakah didn't sama dengan did not?
Ya. Didn't adalah singkatan yang umum dalam percakapan. Did not lebih formal atau untuk penekanan.
