I did not touch vs I have not touch

The correct phrase is "I did not touch." The use of the past simple tense "did not touch" is appropriate when referring to a specific action that happened in the past. On the other hand, "I have not touch" is incorrect because the verb "touch" should be in the past participle form, which is "touched" in this case.
