www.engvid.com/ In this English grammar lesson, I give you some clear rules you can follow on when to use 'no', and when to use 'not'. After the class, take the free quiz at www.engvid.com/how-to-use-no-n... Oh, one note: in the lesson, I suggest not using these words in the same sentence. To be clear, they should usually not be used together in the same *clause*.

I hope one day I will have an opportunity to work with you! PS Who should we put the article AN before the word opportunity if the very noun here is uncountable? Why do we have to put articles before uncountable articles?

@kathymichael7224 4 жыл бұрын

AN is used before singular nouns that begin with a vowel. For instance we say "an egg" -- "I do not have an egg." But we say "a book"-- "I read a book" because "book" starts with a consonant.

Are we allowed to say "he didn't have a reason for being late"? Is it incorrect, or does it just have the same meaning?

@tommytruth7595 7 жыл бұрын

Same meaning.

@kathymichael7224 4 жыл бұрын

The tense is different. "He has no reason for being late" is present tense." He didn't/did not have a reason for being late" is past tense. Both are correct for different times.

well, it depends if you're trying to say that there's nothing to worry or if you're trying to relax someone so when you're trying to tell someone that there's nothing to worry about, you can say "no worry, man, no problem" and if you're trying to relax someone is like "I'm fine, dad, don't worry about me" well, I hope that helped you

If we say "He had not a reason for being late", so this is correct, isn't? Is there difference only in grammar structure or also in the mining of your sentence and mine?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that in your "When not to use "no" with any, many, much, or enough", the example to explain "no" with enough is incorrect. You used "I do not have enough money" "I do no have enough money", but that is actually not showing when not to use no with enough, but when not to use no with a verb. I would say a correct example is "It is not enough" "It is no enough". Otherwise, if you use the -I do not have enough money- you're only explaining when to use no or not with a verb. Please tell me if what I'm saying is incorrect, I would like to know.

What about starting a sentence with a No/Not. for example: "No mastering something today does not mean that I will not be able to do it one day soon" I believe the correct one is "No", am I right?

@cherusiderea1330 4 жыл бұрын

No, the correct form would be "not" because you are negating the verb which would be "mastering", the present/progressive participle of "to master". Remember that he said the only word that can negate a verb is "not".

@kathymichael7224 4 жыл бұрын

NOT. Unless you ask the person to answer using 'yes' or 'no' but the correct way to ask or state is if the person will go or not. Understood is "will go / will not go; not "will no go."

I have a T-shirt written on it ( I am NO angel) should I go to the company and tell them you don't know how to use No & NOt? u should've written ( I am NOT an angel) .

@rodrigojose915 4 жыл бұрын

Both of the sentences are correct. *I am no angel* and *I am not an angel* When we use *no* in a sentence like the one you mentioned: *I am no angel* it means that we want to emphasize what we're saying. So, in that case *I am no angel* I want to say that in no way I'm an angel, there's no how for me to be an angel, I don't want to be or I don't want to accept that fact. In this case is used when something is a fact. If someone come to you and state you're an angel (because it's a fact) you use *NO* to simply not accept this fact. Usually is used like this. Hope it helped. (Of course nobody is no angel. When I said *It's a fact* I just used the sentence *I'm no angel* as an example to explain the use of *NO.*
