Negation

The verbal negation is conveyed by the negative adverb ne. This adverb is placed after the verb cluster, namely after the verb or the aspectual particles.

ʈiːmrɛːh moʈ boːrɖa → ʈiːmrɛːh moʈ ne boːrɖa
the dog is sleeping → the dog isn't sleeping

ʡɛːħnez ŋuh rosmɔq boːrɖa pɔ → ʡɛːħnez ŋuh ne rosmɔq boːrɖa pɔ
the dog had bitten the man → the dog hadn't bitten the man

A negative imperative, conveyed by the prohibitive particle niː, does not need any additional negative particles.

niː ʈiːmrɛːh
don't sleep!

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