   You can also say “I'm not tired.”

2. 2. Punan ang patlang.

   He ___ at home.

   • aren't
   • isn't
   • am not

   The message is about one person: “he.”

3. 3. Punan ang patlang.

   They ___ hungry.

   • isn't
   • am not
   • aren't

   “They aren't hungry” means “They are not hungry.”

4. 4. Piliin ang tamang sagot.

   What is the full form of “I'm” in this message?

   I'm not cold.

   • I is
   • I am
   • I are

   Think of the form of “be” that goes with “I.”

   “I'm” means “I am.” The word “not” comes after it.

5. 5. Piliin ang tamang sagot.

   Who is Mia?

   Mia isn't my sister. She's my friend.

   • My sister.

   • My friend.

   “Isn't my sister” means Mia is not the speaker's sister.

   Which message has the same meaning?

   It's not my phone.

   • It is my phone.
   • It isn't your phone.

   • It isn't my phone.

   “It's not” and “it isn't” both mean “it is not.”

   Amy's message: Who does “we” mean?

   • Yes, he is.

   • No, he isn't.

   A short reply can end with “isn't.” You don't need to repeat “sick.”
