I verbi essere, avere e i verbi modali formano il negativo e la domanda allo stesso modo.

Forma negativa - soggetto piu verbo piu not

I am not Italian
You have not got a car
He can speak English

Forma interrogativa - verbo piu soggetto

Are you Italian?
Have you got a car?
Can you speak English?

Per altri verbi, bisogna aggiungere do o does not

He does not drive
Do you work here?

Per la forma negativa e interrogativa dei verbi al presente semplice vedere Essential Grammar In Use Unit 6 e 7.
