No auxiliary and...negation
0 I am unsure how to write negation when there is no auxiliary. 02 br
02 br
00 For example, "Did you enjoy skiing last winter? No, I didn't. I (return, not) skiing since I broke my leg" 02 br
00 Should I write "I didn't return" or "I haven't returned"... 02 br
02 br
00 Whats the rule here? 02 br
02 br
00 Thanks to all gurus... 02 br

0 You need "haven't returned" because of the "since" clause. 02 br

00 It should be "haven't returned 01 b 00 to 02 b 00 skiing", by the way. 02 br
