Abstract
In this paper we study some properties of generalized metric spaces. We shall give necessary and sufficient conditions for the generalized metric to be a metric. Also, we construct a pseudometric $\widetilde{d\ }$ from a generalized metric$\ d.$ Moreover, we generalize Kannan's fixed point theorem.
