Exercise 2: Change the sentences into the negative form. Use the short form won't.

We replace "will" with "won't" (short for "will not").

#### 0. I'll see you tomorrow. → I won't see you tomorrow.
✔ Given.

#### 1. Susan will go with you.
→ Change "will" to "won't"
✔ Susan won't go with you.

#### 2. Jenny and Chris will show you the way home.
→ Add "won't"
✔ Jenny and Chris won't show you the way home.

#### 3. They'll be in London next week.
→ "They'll" = "they will", so change to "won't"
✔ They won't be in London next week.

#### 4. I'll drive to Sydney.
→ "I'll" → "I won't"
✔ I won't drive to Sydney.

#### 5. We'll see Brent tomorrow.
→ "We'll" → "We won't"
✔ We won't see Brent tomorrow.

#### 6. She said she'll phone me later.
→ The main clause is "She said...", and the reported speech has "she'll".
We only negate the reported part:
✔ She said she won't phone me later.

> Note: This is a reported speech sentence, but we are only changing the future tense inside the quote.
