Question

I told them not everybody could run as fast as you did,_____?

答案是 didn't I .不是有个not everybody 吗？难道部分否定就不能将否定意思提前？我总觉得是 did I .

Answer 1

这是一个主从复合句，主句是I told them ，宾语从句not everybody could run as fast as you did省略that。对于主从复合句的反意疑问句，一般情况下看主句，所以这里用didn't I .但需要注意I don't think that...这样的句子，是看从句，且注意否定的是从句。

Answer 2

这是主从复合句， 反意问句应该和主句主谓语I told 保持对应关系， 这个和not everyone 没关系

追问

那什么时候就与下文有关呢？

追答

在主句中主谓语是I think/ suppose/ 等时
如：
I don't think he is a student, is he? (注意否定前置）

追问

如果是 He said he couldn't make it,_____ he? 填什么喃？
这里如果填 did he。那I told them not everybody could run as fast as you did,_____?为什么没有否定转移呢？

追答

He said he couldn't make it,_didn't_ he?
这里要和He said 保持对应，不存在否定转移的问题， 主句是肯定式，所以反意问句用否定式

追问

在主句中主谓语是I think/ suppose/ 等时
如：
I don't think he is a student, is he? (注意否定前置

也就是说否定转移只有这种形式？有没有其他的形式啊

追答

没有了
另外与否定有关的还有个现象注意下：
It is unimportant, isn't it?
It is not important, is it?
通过加词缀表否定的，应视为肯定句
