現在完了否定形 (まだ〜していない)

まだ終わっていない期間で「起きていないこと」を話すときに使うのが、現在完了形否定文です。「haven't」や「hasn't」が、まさにその「まだ」という気持ちを表す魔法の言葉!

Grammar Rule in 30 Seconds

Use 'haven't' or 'hasn't' followed by a past participle to talk about things that didn't happen in an unfinished time period.

  • Use 'haven't' for I, you, we, they (e.g., I haven't eaten).
  • Use 'hasn't' for he, she, it (e.g., She hasn't arrived).
  • Always use the Past Participle (V3), never the base form or past simple.
👤 + ❌ (haven't/hasn't) + 🏁 (Past Participle)

Overview

Netflixの最新(さいしん)バイラルドキュメンタリーを()たかと()かれて、「()てないんだ」と(こた)えなければならない、あの()まずい沈黙(ちんもく)(かん)じたことはあるかな?それがまさにPresent Perfect Negative活躍(かつやく)する場面(ばめん)だ。これは、まだ人生(じんせい)()こっていないことについて(はな)したいときに必要(ひつよう)文法(ぶんぽう)ツールなんだ。あるいは、今日(きょう)まだ()えていないこととかね。過去(かこ)現在(げんざい)の「未達成(みたっせい)」な自分(じぶん)をつなぐ()(はし)のようなもの。「まだ〜ない」とか「(いち)()も〜ない」の時制(じせい)だと(かんが)えてみて。これは(たん)なる否定(ひてい)(ぶん)じゃなくて、それ以上(いじょう)意味(いみ)()っている。期待(きたい)()みが()められているんだよ。「I haven't eaten」(まだ()べていない)と()えば、(いま)おなかが()いているんだろうなって(つた)わる。「I didn't eat」(()べなかった)と()えば、それは(たん)なる歴史(れきし)(ほん)だ。一方(いっぽう)()きていて、もう一方(いっぽう)()じられた(しょう)なんだ。
この文法(ぶんぽう)ポイントは、近況(きんきょう)報告(ほうこく)最強(さいきょう)味方(みかた)だよ。自分(じぶん)経験(けいけん)(あるいはその欠如(けつじょ))を(ひと)(つた)えることができるんだ。過去(かこ)現在(げんざい)(むす)びつけるために使(つか)うんだね。「そこには()ったことがない」とか「それを(ため)したことがない」といった会話(かいわ)にぴったりだ。Zoomでの就職(しゅうしょく)面接(めんせつ)ではひっきりなしに使(つか)うだろうし、ドラマについて友達(ともだち)とメッセージをやりとりするときにも使(つか)う。まだ(とど)いていない注文(ちゅうもん)についてフードデリバリーアプリに文句(もんく)()うときでさえね。まさに究極(きゅうきょく)の「まだ〜ない」時制(じせい)なんだ。これは、過去(かこ)(はじ)まって、(いま)この瞬間(しゅんかん)まで(つづ)いている期間(きかん)(あらわ)す。もしコーヒーを()()えていなければ、カップはまだ(きみ)()(なか)にある。もしパリに()ったことがなければ、パスポートはそのスタンプをまだ()っている。これは可能性(かのうせい)時制(じせい)であり、FOMO(()(のこ)されることへの恐怖(きょうふ))の時制(じせい)でもある。だって、何かをしたことがないなら、まだするチャンスがあるってことだからね!ただ、このルールを(まな)ぶのを(つぎ)世紀(せいき)まで()たないように。

How This Grammar Works

Present Perfect Negativeは、(いま)現在(げんざい)結果(けっか)物事(ものごと)状態(じょうたい)焦点(しょうてん)()てるんだ。何かが()こらなかったのが*いつ*だったかは()にしない。(いま)この時点(じてん)までそれが()こっていないということだけが重要(じゅうよう)なんだ。人生(じんせい)巨大(きょだい)なチェックリストだと想像(そうぞう)してみて。この時制(じせい)は、まだ(から)っぽのチェックボックスに(しるし)をつけるようなものだね。「()完了(かんりょう)時間(じかん)」という概念(がいねん)一緒(いっしょ)使(つか)われる。これは「今日(きょう)」「今週(こんしゅう)」、あるいは「人生(じんせい)全体(ぜんたい)」かもしれない。その期間(きかん)()わっていなければ、この時制(じせい)使(つか)うんだ。Past Simpleとは(ちが)う。なぜならPast Simple()()まりだからだ。Present Perfect(ひら)かれたドアなんだ。「今日(きょう)、お(かあ)さんに電話(でんわ)してないんだ」と()えば、今日(きょう)はまだ(つづ)いている。いい()でいる時間(じかん)はまだある!でも、「昨日(きのう)、お(かあ)さんに電話(でんわ)しなかった」と()えば、まあ、昨日(きのう)はもう()()ってしまった。チャンスを(のが)したんだね。これは最近(さいきん)出来事(できごと)にも使(つか)う。だから、ちょうど()こっていないようなことにも使(つか)うんだ。まだ受信(じゅしん)トレイに(とど)いていないメールのようにね。これは、過去(かこ)()行動(こうどう)現在(げんざい)(およ)ぼす結果(けっか)についてなんだ。もしhaven't slept(()ていない)なら、(いま)(つか)れている。この文法(ぶんぽう)は、「しなかったこと」と「(いま)状態(じょうたい)」を(むす)びつけるんだ。

When To Use It

じゃあ、いつこの文法(ぶんぽう)をポケットから()()すべきか?(もっと)一般(いっぱん)(てき)なシナリオはこれらだよ:
  • Life Experiences: 人生(じんせい)(いち)()もやったことがないことについて(はな)すとき。「I haven't ever been to a rave.」(レイブには(いち)()()ったことがないんだ。)
  • Unfinished Time: 時間(じかん)期間(きかん)がまだ(つづ)いているとき。「I haven't checked my email *this morning*.」(*今朝は*まだメールをチェックしていない。)
  • Recent Events (with 'yet'): 何かがすぐに()こると期待(きたい)しているとき。「The Uber hasn't arrived yet.」(Uberがまだ()かない。)
  • Changes Over Time: 何も()わっていないと()うため。「The weather hasn't improved at all.」(天気(てんき)(まった)()くなっていない。)
  • Current Result: 行動(こうどう)しなかったことが現在(げんざい)結果(けっか)につながっているとき。「I haven't done my laundry, so I have no clean shirts.」(洗濯(せんたく)をしていないから、きれいなシャツがない。)
これはどこででも()にするよ。Instagramのキャプションで:「I haven't been this happy in years!」(ここ(すう)(ねん)でこんなに(しあわ)せだったことはない!)。職場(しょくば)Slackメッセージで:「The client hasn't sent the feedback.」(クライアントがまだフィードバックを(おく)ってきていない)。これは現代(げんだい)社会(しゃかい)言葉(ことば)なんだ。DoorDash配達(はいたつ)(いん)Fortniteのアップデートが()わるのを()っているときに()言葉(ことば)だね。それに、とても丁寧(ていねい)()(かた)でもある。「You didn't send the file」(あなたがファイルを(おく)らなかった)と()うより、「I haven't received the file」(ファイルを()()っていません)と()(ほう)がずっと(やわ)らかく()こえる。(ひと)失敗(しっぱい)ではなく、()けている結果(けっか)焦点(しょうてん)()てるんだ。1時間(じかん)()きやまない(ねこ)(はな)しかけている場合(ばあい)(べつ)だけどね。その(とき)は、どんどん焦点(しょうてん)をずらしちゃえ!

Common Mistakes

心配(しんぱい)しないで、ネイティブスピーカーでさえ時々(ときどき)これにつまずくことがあるから。でも、これを()んでいる(きみ)大丈夫(だいじょうぶ)
  • The Did Trap: (おお)くの(ひと)Present Perfectdid使(つか)おうとする。✗ "I haven't did it.
    ()ってしまう。(ただ)しくは ✓
    I haven't done it." だ。(おぼ)えておいて、have(あと)には(つね)Past Participle動詞(どうし)の3番目(ばんめ)(かたち))が()るのであって、単純(たんじゅん)過去(かこ)(けい)絶対(ぜったい)()ない。
  • The Has/Have Mix-up: he/she/it に haven't使(つか)ってしまう。✗ "He haven't seen it.
    間違(まちが)いで、✓

    I didn't see him yesterday
    ()うか、✓
    I haven't seen him since yesterday." と()おう。
  • The 'Yet' Overload: すべての(ぶん)に 'yet' をつけてしまうこと。「I haven't eaten.」で(まった)問題(もんだい)ない。期待(きたい)強調(きょうちょう)したい場合(ばあい)(のぞ)いて、(かなら)ずしも 'yet' は必要(ひつよう)ないんだ。

Contrast With Similar Patterns

最大(さいだい)のライバルはPast Simple Negativedidn't + 動詞(どうし)原形(げんけい))だ。どうやって(えら)べばいい?
タイムラインを想像(そうぞう)してみて。特定(とくてい)日付(ひづけ)時間(じかん)があったり、イベントが完全(かんぜん)終了(しゅうりょう)している場合(ばあい)歴史(れきし)(てき)出来事(できごと)など)はdidn't使(つか)う。「I didn't go to the gym *on Monday*.」(*月曜日に*ジムに()かなかった)。これは過去(かこ)についての事実(じじつ)だ。
時間(じかん)(ひら)かれていて、その出来事(できごと)がまだ()こる可能性(かのうせい)があるならhaven't使(つか)う。「I haven't gone to the gym *this week*.」(*今週は*ジムに()っていない)。(しゅう)はまだ()わっていない!(きみ)筋肉(きんにく)にはまだ希望(きぼう)がある。

Quick FAQ

Q

ずっと(むかし)()こったことにも haven't使(つか)えますか?

時間(じかん)期間(きかん)がまだ(ひら)いている場合(ばあい)だけね。「I haven't seen my childhood friend in 20 years.」((おさな)なじみとは20(ねん)(かん)()っていない)。20(ねん)という期間(きかん)(いま)(つづ)いているんだ!

Q

hasn't より has not(ほう)()いですか?

WhatsAppInstagram のコメントで?いや、hasn't(ほう)がずっと自然(しぜん)だよ。大学(だいがく)のフォーマルなエッセイでは? has not(ほう)無難(ぶなん)だね。

Q

Past Participle(かたち)がわからない場合(ばあい)はどうすればいいですか?

(まよ)ったら検索(けんさく)して!またはパターンを(さが)してみよう。ほとんどの動詞(どうし)規則(きそく)動詞(どうし)だから。でも 'go' や 'see' で推測(すいそく)しないでね。'gone' と 'seen' であって、'goed' や 'seed' ではない。Google Translate文脈(ぶんみゃく)によってはこれを間違(まちが)えることがあるから、ちゃんとした辞書(じしょ)確認(かくにん)しよう!

Q

否定(ひてい)(ぶん)ではいつも yet必要(ひつよう)ですか?

いいえ。yet は「これがすぐに()こることを期待(きたい)している」というニュアンスを()(くわ)えるだけ。「I haven't finished」は(たん)なる陳述(ちんじゅつ)。「I haven't finished *yet*」は「(いま)()()んでいる最中(さいちゅう)です」という約束(やくそく)になる。上司(じょうし)とのトラブルを()けるのに最適(さいてき)だね!

Q

haven'tever一緒(いっしょ)使(つか)っても大丈夫(だいじょうぶ)ですか?

(じつ)は、haven'tever普通(ふつう)疑問(ぎもん)(ぶん)一緒(いっしょ)使(つか)うんだ。否定(ひてい)(ぶん)では haven'thave never使(つか)う。「I haven't ever been there」も可能(かのう)だけど、「I've never been there」の(ほう)がずっと一般(いっぱん)(てき)。シンプルに(かんが)えよう!(のう)感謝(かんしゃ)するよ。

Q

*たった(いま)*()こらなかったことについて(はな)すにはどうすればいいですか?

just肯定(こうてい)(てき)なことによく使(つか)うけど、否定(ひてい)(てき)なことには haven't + yetstill haven't使(つか)うのが普通(ふつう)だよ。「I *still* haven't received the code.」(*まだ*コードを()()っていない)。この still は、ちょっとしたイライラ(かん)(くわ)える。なかなか表示(ひょうじ)されない()段階(だんかい)認証(にんしょう)コードを()っている(とき)みたいにね。

Q

否定(ひてい)(ぶん)での gonebeen(ちが)いって(なん)ですか?

いい質問(しつもん)だね!否定(ひてい)(ぶん)では、しばしば(おな)意味(いみ)になることがある。「I haven't been to London」は、(いち)()(おとず)れたことがないという意味(いみ)。「He hasn't gone to work」は、(かれ)(いま)(いえ)にいるという意味(いみ)だ。(ひと)つは経験(けいけん)についてで、もう(ひと)つは(いま)現在(げんざい)場所(ばしょ)についてなんだ。

間違えやすい

Present Perfect Negative (haven't / hasn't) Past Simple Negative (didn't)

Learners use 'didn't' when the time period is still open or the result is relevant.

Present Perfect Negative (haven't / hasn't) Present Perfect Continuous Negative (haven't been -ing)

Learners confuse the lack of a completed action with the lack of a continuous one.

Present Perfect Negative (haven't / hasn't) Never vs. Haven't

Using both 'haven't' and 'never' in the same sentence.

よくある間違い

I haven't see him.

I haven't seen him.

You must use the past participle (seen), not the base form (see).

He haven't eaten.

He hasn't eaten.

Use 'hasn't' for he/she/it.

I no have seen it.

I haven't seen it.

English uses 'haven't', not 'no have'.

I haven't did it.

I haven't done it.

Don't use the past simple (did); use the past participle (done).

I haven't seen him yesterday.

I didn't see him yesterday.

You cannot use specific past times (yesterday, last week) with the present perfect.

I haven't never been there.

I haven't ever been there. / I have never been there.

Avoid double negatives. Use 'haven't ever' or 'have never'.

She hasn't finished already.

She hasn't finished yet.

In negative sentences, we usually use 'yet' instead of 'already'.

I haven't been knowing him for long.

I haven't known him for long.

Stative verbs like 'know' are rarely used in the continuous form, even in the perfect negative.

It's three years since I haven't seen him.

It's three years since I last saw him. / I haven't seen him for three years.

The 'since' clause usually takes a positive past simple verb.

I haven't seen him since two weeks.

I haven't seen him for two weeks.

Use 'for' with a period of time, 'since' with a point in time.

I haven't seen him, I don't think.

I don't think I've seen him.

While the 'wrong' version is common in speech, 'negative raising' (moving the negative to the main verb) is preferred in formal writing.

She hasn't ___ since ___.

We haven't ___ so far this ___.

It hasn't escaped my notice that ___.

Smart Tips

Use 'I haven't yet' instead of 'I didn't'. It sounds like you are still working on it.

I didn't finish the report. I haven't finished the report yet.

Check if the verb is in the Present Perfect. These words are almost always a signal for this tense.

I don't see him since Monday. I haven't seen him since Monday.

Remove the 'n't' from 'haven't'. 'Never' already makes the sentence negative.

I haven't never been to Paris. I have never been to Paris.

Always use 'haven't' if you are still alive! Your life is an unfinished time period.

I didn't go to China in my life. I haven't been to China.

発音

/ˈhæv.ənt/ or /ˈhæz.ənt/

Contraction Stress

In the negative, the contraction 'haven't' or 'hasn't' usually receives more stress than the positive 'have' or 'has'.

I haven'(t) seen it.

The 't' sound

In fast speech, the final 't' in 'haven't' is often unreleased or 'glottalized' before a consonant.

Falling Intonation

I haven't finished ↘

Rhyme

Story

Meet Bob. Bob is a procrastinator. Today, Bob has a long list. It is 5:00 PM. Bob says, 'I haven't washed the car, I hasn't cooked dinner, and I haven't called my mom.' Because the day isn't over, Bob uses the Present Perfect Negative.

文化メモ

British speakers use the present perfect negative much more frequently than American speakers for recent actions.

Americans often substitute the Past Simple Negative ('I didn't eat yet') where British speakers would strictly use the Present Perfect.

In AAVE, 'ain't' is a common substitute for 'haven't' or 'hasn't'.

The 'have' + past participle construction emerged in Old English, originally meaning 'I possess [something] in a completed state'.

No. You cannot use specific past time markers like `yesterday` with the present perfect. Use the past simple: `I didn't see him yesterday`.

Use `hasn't` only for the third person singular (`he`, `she`, `it`). Use `haven't` for everything else (`I`, `you`, `we`, `they`).

No. `I haven't got` usually means 'I don't possess' (Present Simple meaning), while `I haven't had` is the negative of 'I have had' (Present Perfect).

In American English, the Past Simple is often used for recent actions where British English would use the Present Perfect. Both are understood, but the Present Perfect is more 'standard' globally.

No, that's a double negative. Say `I have never been` or `I haven't ever been`.

Yes, you must use the Past Participle (V3). For example, `haven't gone`, not `haven't go` or `haven't went`.

Use `have not` in formal writing, like business reports, academic essays, or legal documents.

Not necessarily. It usually implies that the action hasn't happened *up to now*, but it might happen in the future.
