B: Why not? (she / not / come / is / to the party?) _______?
A. She isn’t coming to the party?
B. Doesn’t she coming to the party?
C. Isn’t she coming to the party?
D. Don’t she coming to the party?

Answer 1

Hint: Negative sentences or statement states that something is not true or correct. For example: They practice yoga (positive sentence) – They don’t practice yoga (negative question).

Complete answer:
Option A) She isn’t coming to the party? – is an incorrect answer because for framing a correct question verb should come first and followed by rest. However, in this option the sentence starts with a noun. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.
Option B) Doesn’t she coming to the party? – is an incorrect answer because ‘Doesn’t she coming to the party’ does not fit in the blank. However, we will not consider this as the correct answer because they use the words that are not given in the question like doesn’t. Thus, this is an incorrect answer.
Option C) Isn’t she coming to the party? – is the correct answer because in this sentence the verb is used first ‘isn’t’. It follows the narration rule and this the correct answer.
Option D) Don’t she coming to the party? – is an incorrect answer because ‘Don’t she coming to the party’ does not fit in the blank because it uses the word that is not given in the option (don’t). So, this is an incorrect answer.
A: We won’t see Ann this evening.
B: Why not? Isn’t she coming to the party? (Option C)

Note:
The Negation Rule: In order to claim that something is not true, we form a negative sentence by adding the word not after the first auxiliary verb in the positive sentence. Like in this question, other options are incorrect because to frame a question, the verb has to come first. Therefore, option C is correct (follows the rule negation rule).
