Today, we’re going to learn about negation with words like, “not” and “no”.<\/p>\n
First, let’s look at a couple of examples :<\/p>\n
I have not read this book : \u092e\u0948\u0902\u0928\u0947 \u092f\u0939\u00a0\u0915\u093f\u0924\u093e\u092c\u00a0\u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902\u00a0\u092a\u0922\u093c\u0940 (\u0939\u0948)<\/strong><\/p>\n He does not do good work : \u0935\u0939\u00a0\u0915\u093e\u092e\u00a0\u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902 \u0915\u0930\u0924\u093e\u00a0(\u0939\u0948)<\/strong><\/p>\n For both of these sentences, (\u0939\u0948<\/strong>) is in parentheses. That’s because placing \u0939\u0948<\/strong> at the end of a sentence is sometimes optional. In English as in Hindi, you can create a negative sentence with the positive verb \u0939\u0948<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Like in these examples :<\/p>\n Nowadays he doesn’t go to the office : \u0935\u0939 \u0906\u091c\u0915\u0932\u00a0\u0926\u095e\u094d\u0924\u0930\u00a0\u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902\u00a0\u091c\u093e\u0924\u093e\u00a0\u0939\u0948<\/strong><\/p>\n He is not here : \u0935\u0939 \u092f\u0939\u093e\u0901\u00a0\u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902\u00a0\u0939\u0948<\/strong><\/p>\n In all four sentences, the word for “not” was \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902. <\/strong>In all these sentences \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902 <\/strong>was placed before the main verb.<\/p>\n Let’s do a sample practice. If “I will go” in Hindi is \u092e\u0948\u0902\u00a0\u091c\u093e\u090a\u0901\u0917\u093e<\/strong>, what is “I won’t go”?<\/p>\n The answer is: \u092e\u0948\u0902 \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902 \u091c\u093e\u090a\u0901\u0917\u093e<\/strong><\/p>\n Now let’s look at a sentence like this:<\/p>\n No, this is not mine either : \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902, \u092f\u0939 \u092e\u0947\u0930\u093e \u092d\u0940 \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u0939\u0948<\/strong><\/p>\n \u0928\u0939\u0940\u0902 <\/strong>can also mean “no” as in the example above.<\/p>\n \ufffd<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Today, we’re going to learn about negation with words like, “not” and “no”.
