"it did not belong to me" vs "it was not belongs to me"

The correct phrase is 'it did not belong to me.' 'It was not belongs to me' is incorrect because 'belongs' is the present tense form of the verb, while 'did not belong' is the correct past tense form. The use of 'did not' indicates the past tense in English.

Last Updated: March 30, 2024

it did not belong to me

This phrase is correct and commonly used in English to indicate that something was not owned by the speaker in the past.

Use 'did not belong' to express that something was not in possession or ownership in the past.

Alternatives:

  • it was not mine
  • it was not in my possession
  • it was not under my ownership
  • it was not my property
  • it was not for me

it was not belongs to me

This phrase is incorrect. 'Belongs' is the present tense form of the verb, and it does not match the past tense 'was.'

The correct past tense form is 'it did not belong to me.' Use 'did not' to indicate the past tense in English.

Alternatives:

  • it did not belong to me
  • it was not mine
  • it was not in my possession
  • it was not under my ownership
  • it was not my property
