To create a negative sentence in French, you can follow this easy pattern: subject + ne + verb + pas + complement.

Example:

1. Positive Sentence:

   • Elle aime le chocolat. (She loves chocolate.)

2. Negative Sentence:

   • Elle n'aime pas le chocolat. (She does not love chocolate.)

Let’s Break It Down:

• Subject: Elle (She)
• Verb: aime (loves)
• Negation: Use the words ne and pas around the verb to make it negative.
  • If the verb starts with a vowel sound, use n’ instead of ne.
• Complement: le chocolat (the chocolate)

More Examples:

• Positive: Il mange une pomme. (He eats an apple.)
  Negative: Il ne mange pas de pomme. (He does not eat an apple.)

Once you know this pattern, making negative sentences in French will be a piece of cake!
