Hi Dari learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will learn about negation in Dari. Negation is an important part of any language, and it is essential to understand how to use it correctly in order to communicate effectively. We will look at the different ways to express negation in Dari, as well as some examples of how to use them.
Negation is a way of expressing the opposite of something. In Dari, there are several ways to express negation. The most common way is to use the word na (نه). This word can be used to negate verbs, adjectives, and nouns. For example:
Dari | Pronunciation | English Translation |
---|---|---|
من نه دارم | man na dāram | I don't have |
او نه بلده | ū na baladah | He is not from here |
او نه خوبه | ū na khōbah | He is not good |
او نه بخوره | ū na bakhōrah | He does not eat |
Another way to express negation in Dari is to use the word nist (نیست). This word is used to negate verbs, adjectives, and nouns. For example:
Dari | Pronunciation | English Translation |
---|---|---|
من نیست دارم | man nist dāram | I don't have |
او نیست بلده | ū nist baladah | He is not from here |
او نیست خوبه | ū nist khōbah | He is not good |
او نیست بخوره | ū nist bakhōrah | He does not eat |
The third way to express negation in Dari is to use the word nadāram (ندارم). This word is used to negate verbs only. For example:
Dari | Pronunciation | English Translation |
---|---|---|
من ندارم بخوره | man nadāram bakhōrah | I don't eat |
من ندارم خوابه | man nadāram khābah | I don't sleep |
من ندارم بلده | man nadāram baladah | I'm not from here |
من ندارم خوبه | man nadāram khōbah | I'm not good |
Finally, the fourth way to express negation in Dari is to use the word nadārad (ندارد). This word is used to negate adjectives and nouns only. For example:
Dari | Pronunciation | English Translation |
---|---|---|
او ندارد بخوره | ū nadārad bakhōrah | He doesn't eat |
او ندارد خوابه | ū nadārad khābah | He doesn't sleep |
او ندارد بلده | ū nadārad baladah | He's not from here |
او ندارد خوبه | ū nadārad khōbah | He's not good |
Now that you know the different ways to express negation in Dari, it's time to practice! Try using the words na, nist, nadāram, and nadārad in sentences of your own. You can also practice by talking to native speakers on the Polyglot Club website. Find native speakers and ask them any questions!
