i did not visit

This phrase is correct and commonly used in English.

  • She did not visit her parents last weekend.
  • We did not visit the park on Monday.
  • They did not visit the new restaurant last night.
  • He did not visit his friend in the hospital.

Alternatives:

i did not visited

This phrase is incorrect in English. The verb "visited" is in the wrong form after the auxiliary verb "did."

The correct phrase is "I did not visit." The verb "visit" should be in the base form after the auxiliary verb "did." The incorrect phrase "I did not visited" uses the past participle form of the verb incorrectly.
