Negation

The verbal negation is conveyed, as already shown, by specific negative temporal suffix of the verb.

wooha tternine reenigæpiid → wooha tternine reenigæpeer
the dog bit the man → The dog didn't bite the man

In the present tense, whose positive form displays no ending, the negative form always displays a specific ending.

roo kumirom → roo kumiromal
I'm eating → I'm not eating

The negative ending of the present tense is used also for the negative form of the imperative, which usually displays no ending.

śiibæd! → śiibædæl!
sleep! → don't sleep!

Double negatives are generally not allowed; the presence of another negative element in the sentence inhibits the negative adverb.

roo retine tuurkarom → roo oortuno retine tuurkarom
I see a person → I see no person
