The correct answers are didn't you go and is there no.
Didn't you go is a negative question used to express surprise or confirm an expectation. The structure is Auxiliary (Did) + n't + Subject + Base Verb. "Didn't you went" is incorrect because after "did," the main verb must stay in the base form ("go," not "went"). "You didn't go" is a statement, not a question — questions need the auxiliary before the subject.
Why is there no is correct because "no" already makes the sentence negative. Using "isn't there no" would create an incorrect double negative.
Negation
If your native language uses double negatives (I don't see nothing) — like Russian, Spanish, or French — you've probably been told this is wrong in English and not been entirely sure what the fix is. Standard English uses one negative per clause: either I saw nothing or I didn't see anything, never both. Once you internalise that single rule, your written English clears up a lot.
Negation in English uses not after an auxiliary or modal verb: I am not going. Without an auxiliary, you add do-support (I do not go). Negative words like never and nobody already negate the clause — adding not on top creates non-standard double negatives.
Questions
If you've ever asked You like coffee? with rising intonation and gotten a confused look — you've felt the gap between casual and grammatical English questions. Many languages form questions with intonation alone, but English usually requires inversion (Are you ready?) or do-support (Do you like coffee?). Skip the structure and your questions sound like uncertain statements.
Questions in English use inversion of subject and an auxiliary (Can she dance?) or do-support when no auxiliary is present (Does the milk go in the fridge?). Yes/no questions, wh-questions, negative questions, and tag questions all share this machinery.
Past tense
If you've ever told a story in English and felt the timeline get tangled — I came home, the dog ate, the cat slept — you've hit the limits of using simple past for everything. The past tense system has four forms specifically because real stories have layered timing: things that happened before other things, actions caught in progress, sequences of completed events.
The past tense has four English forms: simple past (I walked), past progressive (I was walking), past perfect (I had walked — earlier than another past event), past perfect progressive (I had been walking — ongoing up to a past point). Plus irregular verbs for the simple-past form.
Auxiliary verb
If you've ever wondered why English asks Do you know? instead of Know you?, or how a single sentence can carry tense, aspect, AND voice (has been being cleaned), you've felt the work of auxiliary verbs. They're tiny words that quietly carry most of English's grammatical machinery — get them wrong and questions, negatives, and tenses all fall apart.
An auxiliary verb combines with a main verb to add grammatical meaning. The English auxiliaries are be, have, do, and the modal verbs (can, will, should…). They handle questions (Do you?), negation (don't), tense and aspect (has gone, is going), and passive voice (was eaten).
Word Order
If your first language has flexible word order — Russian, Latin, German, Japanese — English can feel rigid. You can't just rearrange words for emphasis the way you would at home; the grammar tracks position, not just inflection. Get the order wrong and the sentence either changes meaning or stops making sense.
Word order is the sequence of words in a sentence. English is an SVO language — subject, verb, object. The order of adjectives and modifiers in a noun phrase also follows fixed patterns. Get this right and your English instantly sounds more natural.
B1 | Intermediate
If you can hold a conversation about your weekend, explain why you're late, and follow a short news story without panicking — but still feel lost in fast or technical English — you're probably operating at B1. Knowing this matters: study material at the wrong level either bores you or burns you out, and B1 is the typical target for travel, casual work, and most everyday social English.
B1 is the intermediate level in the CEFR framework, where you handle everyday English independently and start combining ideas with complex sentences, passive voice, and modal verbs.
Difficulty: Medium
If easy questions feel too obvious but hard questions leave you guessing, you're probably ready for Medium — the level where most real learning happens. It pushes just enough to expose the rules you don't quite have yet, without burying you in edge cases. This is where steady fluency is built, one well-aimed challenge at a time.
The Medium difficulty tag marks middle-range challenges — typically A2 to B1. One rule per question, realistic distractors, and contexts that require active thought rather than instant recognition.
