English — negation
How to say no, not, never, nothing and nobody — the words that turn a sentence negative.
| Word / pattern | Meaning |
|---|---|
| no | no |
| not | not |
| never | never |
| nothing | nothing |
| nobody | nobody |
⚠ Note
Spanish, Italian and Polish use double negation (no … nada, non … niente, nie … nic — literally “not … nothing”). French wraps the verb: ne … pas. English and German negate with one word (not / nicht).
