Next time (won't you) sing with me.
Does it mean next time you will not sing with me?

 

[Rover_KE]

No. It means 'Next time I would like you to sing with me'.

I am inviting you to sing with me.

 

[love-you-mom]

No. It means 'Next time I would like you to sing with me'.

I am inviting you to sing with me.

Next time won't you sing with me.

Thanks but I think won't means will not.
So what's the relationship between won't and would like?

'Won't you?' means 'will you not?'

'Next time, I would like you to sing with me. Is there a good reason why you will not sing with me?'

'Won't you?' means 'will you not?'

'Next time, I would like you to sing with me. Is there a good reason why you will not sing with me?'

"Next time, sing with me" is a command. "... won't you..." is used to soften a command and turn it into an invitation. It sounds confusing because "won't you" is in negative form, but the context is important.
