Pg. 129 – Negations Words
Ways of making sentences negative in Spanish
Making sentences negative is easy by just placing a “no” before the verb = not do something / don’t
Ex: El nada. = he swims
Ex: El no nada. = he doesn’t swim
• Three other words to make a sent. negative are:
•Nunca = never ex: Nunca estudio.
•Nada = nothing ex: No hago nada los lunes.
•Nadie = no one ex: Nadie toca el piano.
Grammar Rules for negative words:
1. Nunca/nada: place the neg. word before the verb or use a double negative and put “no” before the verb and “nunca or nada” after the verb (end of sent.)
*Nunca can go either before or after verb but nada must be used with a double negative “no…verb…nada”
Ex: Nunca estudio para el examen. –or-
Ex: No estudio para el examen nunca.
Ex: Mi madre no cocina nada para la cena hoy.
Grammar Rules for negative words:
2. Nadie – a) used like nunca and can go before the verb or used as a double negative with “no” before the verb and nadie after the verb. b.) it is used with the singular (el/ella) form of the verb
Ex: Nadie escucha en clase.
Ex: No escucha en clase nadie.
