Difference between affirmative and negative sentences
  • 1 answers

Gaurav Seth 4 years, 11 months ago

Affirmative sentences are sentences that give a positive sense, as opposed to negative sentences. They tell us what something or something has, does, or is. For example,

He is a doctor. (Tells us what someone is)

My uncle has a big house. (Tells us what someone has)

She danced with me. (Tells us what someone does)

Affirmative sentences are the opposite of negative sentences. Negative sentences tell us what something or something doesn’t have, can’t do, or isn’t.
