Uwagi:
- Przeczenia od can i must tworzymy przez dodanie do nich wyrazu przeczącego not.
- Forma przecząca czasownika must oznacza zakaz.
- Żeby wyrazić, że czegoś nie musimy robić, używamy formy przeczącej czasownika need.
I must do it.
Muszę to zrobić.

Nie wolno jej tam iść.
We needn't come to school tomorrow.
Nie musimy przychodzić jutro do szkoły.
