Sentence toPositive() forces extra auxiliary verb 'to do'

Open dimavolo opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Thank you for this awesome library.

I couldn't find a way to turn:

He does not like camels

into

He likes camels

At best, we can use sentences().toPositive() to turn it into:

He does like camels

Is there any chained combo that would convert negative sentences like He does not like camels into positive, present tense without the auxiliary verb, 'to do'?

Thanks!

hey Dima, I agree - this would be really cool to improve. I bet there may be a number of other awkward stylistic issues in toPositive/toNegative. You can see the implementation is awkwardly-small. I'd really love some help fine-tuning it
