たすけがひつよう.てください.
こんばんは.What's the difference between:
べんきょうしない (benkyou shinai) and べんきょうする (benkyou suru) I know benkyou is something like 'to study' but is there any difference? Gomen nasaii if this sounds stupid. (>o<)

べんきょうする＝I study.
べんきょうしない＝I don't study.

"shinai" is the negative form of "suru": http://www.guidetojapanese.org/learn/grammar/negativeverbs
"benkyou" by itself is a noun. There are many words in Japanese that can be turned into verbs by adding (and conjugating) "suru", so "to study" is "benkyou suru" and "to not study" is "benkyou shinai".

勉強しない I do not study
勉強しない？ let's study (usually colloquial, not formal)
勉強する I study
勉強する？ Will you study?(usually colloquial, not formal)
I mean, it depends on intonation.
