Negation

The verbal negation is conveyed by the negative adverb rə, used before a word beginning in a consonant, or ər, used before a word beginning in a vowel. This adverb is placed before the verb, usually after other non-verbal elements in the sentence.

lozɛh ožoβa šoro → lozɛh ožoβa rə šoro
the dog always sleeps → the dog doesn't sleep always

lozɛh fyx oh→ lozɛh fyx ər oh
the dog bit the man → the dog didn't bite the man

Con i tempi verbali composti, viene solitamente posto tra la forma del participio ed il verbo ausiliare.

lozɛh šore imo → lozɛh šore ər imo
the dog is sleeping → the dog isn't sleeping

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