Hi [https://polyglotclub.com/language/kazakh Kazakh] learners! 😊<br>In this lesson, we will learn about negation in the Kazakh language. 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 Kazakh, as well as some examples of how to use them. __TOC__


Negation is a way of expressing the opposite of something. In Kazakh, there are several ways to express negation. The most common way is to use the word емес (emes). This word can be used to negate verbs, adjectives, and nouns. For example:

When we negate a sentence, we mean to express its opposite. Negation is an essential concept in any language, and it is a crucial tool for communication. By knowing how to negate a sentence in Kazakh, you can express your thoughts and ideas more accurately. So let's get started and explore this topic in depth.


* Мен ауылға бармадым. (Men auylda barmadım.) - I didn't go to the village.
__TOC__
* Бұл жақсы емес. (Bul jaqsı emes.) - This is not good.
* Осы адам дос емес. (Osy adam dos emes.) - This man is not a doctor.


Another way to express negation is to use the word жоқ (jok). This word is used to negate nouns and adjectives. For example:


* Осы адам дос жоқ. (Osy adam dos jok.) - This man is not a doctor.

* Бұл жақсы жоқ. (Bul jaqsı jok.) - This is not good.
== Negation Particle ==


The word болмай (bolmay) is also used to express negation. This word is used to negate verbs and adjectives. For example:
In Kazakh, the negation particle used to form a negative sentence is ''жоq''. To negate a sentence, we put the word ''жоq'' before the verb. The verb is then conjugated to agree with the subject of the sentence.


* Мен ауылға болмайдым. (Men auylda bolmaıdım.) - I didn't go to the village.
For example, let's use the verb ''ол'' ("to be"):
* Бұл жақсы болмай. (Bul jaqsı bolmay.) - This is not good.
{| class="wikitable"
! Kazakh !! English
|-
| Ол!! He is!
| Ол жоқ!! He is not!
|}


Finally, the word болмаған (bolmağan) is used to express negation for nouns. For example:
In the above example, we added the negation particle ''жоқ'' before the verb ''ол'' ("to be") to form a negative sentence. Note that the verb is conjugated the same way as in the positive sentence.


* Осы адам дос болмаған. (Osy adam dos bolmağan.) - This man is not a doctor.
Let's see another example with the verb ''қарау'' ("to see"):
{| class="wikitable"
! Kazakh !! English
|-
| Мен оны көрдім!! I saw him!
| Мен оны көрмедім!! I did not see him!
|}


It is important to note that the words емес, жоқ, болмай, and болмаған can all be used together to express a stronger negation. For example:
In the above example, the negation particle ''ме'' is added to the verb ''көру'' ("to see") in its past tense form ''көрдім'' ("I saw") to form the negative past tense form ''көрмедім'' ("I did not see"), to agree with the subject ''мен'' ("I").


* Осы адам дос емес жоқ болмай болмаған. (Osy adam dos emes jok bolmaı bolmağan.) - This man is definitely not a doctor.
== Negation of Nouns and Adjectives ==


Now that you know the different ways to express negation in Kazakh, let's look at some examples of how to use them in sentences.  
To express negation in Kazakh for nouns and adjectives, we add the negation particle ''емес'' after the word we want to negate. The particle ''емес'' means "not" or "no".


* Мен ауылға болмайдым. (Men auylda bolmaıdım.) - I didn't go to the village.
For example, let's use the adjective ''үлкен'' ("big"):
* Бұл жақсы емес жоқ болмай. (Bul jaqsı emes jok bolmaı.) - This is not good.
{| class="wikitable"
* Осы адам дос болмаған. (Osy adam dos bolmağan.) - This man is not a doctor.
! Kazakh !! English
* Мен ауылға бармадым деп ескермедім. (Men auylda barmadım dep eskermedim.) - I didn't go to the village, but I will go tomorrow.

| Сенің өркенің үлкен екенін білемін!! I know that your house is big!
| Сенің өркенің үлкен емес екенін білемін!! I know that your house is not big!

{| class="wikitable"

|-
| Ол маған ұсыныс берді!! He invited me!
| Ол маған ұсыныс бермеді!! He did not invite me!
|}
 
In the above example, we added the negation particle ''ме'' after the verb ''беру'' ("to give") in its past tense form ''берді'' ("invited") to form the negative past tense form ''бермеді'' ("did not invite"), to agree with the subject ''ол'' ("he").
 
== Double Negation ==
 
In Kazakh grammar, it is common to use double negation, which is the use of two negative words in a sentence. This is a grammatically correct form of negation in Kazakh and is used to emphasize negation or denial.
 
For example:
{| class="wikitable"
! Kazakh !! English
|-
| Ол менен болмайды!! He will not come with me!
| Ол менен жоқ болатындай болып отыр!! He is not coming with me!
|}
 
In the above example, we used the negation particle ''жоқ'' to form the negative sentence, and also added the negation particle ''болмайды'' to emphasize negation.
 
Let's see another example:
{| class="wikitable"

|-
| Сол лауазымның тереңі емес!! This soup is not spicy!
| Сол лауазымның тереңі солт емес екенін ұмытмаймын!! This soup is not just not spicy, but also not salty!
|}
 
In the above example, we added the negation particle ''емес'' after the adjective ''терең'' ("spicy") to express negation, and also used the negation particle ''солт'' to emphasize negation.

Kazakh Grammar - Negation

Hi Kazakh learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will delve into the topic of negation in Kazakh grammar. When we negate a sentence, we mean to express its opposite. Negation is an essential concept in any language, and it is a crucial tool for communication. By knowing how to negate a sentence in Kazakh, you can express your thoughts and ideas more accurately. So let's get started and explore this topic in depth.


Take some time to dive into these other pages after completing this lesson: Nouns, Consonants, Genitive Case & Future Tense.

Negation Particle[edit | edit source]

In Kazakh, the negation particle used to form a negative sentence is жоq. To negate a sentence, we put the word жоq before the verb. The verb is then conjugated to agree with the subject of the sentence.

For example, let's use the verb ол ("to be"):

Kazakh English
Ол!! He is! Ол жоқ!! He is not!

In the above example, we added the negation particle жоқ before the verb ол ("to be") to form a negative sentence. Note that the verb is conjugated the same way as in the positive sentence.

Let's see another example with the verb қарау ("to see"):

Kazakh English
Мен оны көрдім!! I saw him! Мен оны көрмедім!! I did not see him!

In the above example, the negation particle ме is added to the verb көру ("to see") in its past tense form көрдім ("I saw") to form the negative past tense form көрмедім ("I did not see"), to agree with the subject мен ("I").

Negation of Nouns and Adjectives[edit | edit source]

To express negation in Kazakh for nouns and adjectives, we add the negation particle емес after the word we want to negate. The particle емес means "not" or "no".

For example, let's use the adjective үлкен ("big"):

Kazakh English
Сенің өркенің үлкен екенін білемін!! I know that your house is big! Сенің өркенің үлкен емес екенін білемін!! I know that your house is not big!

In the above example, we added the negation particle емес after the adjective үлкен ("big") to express negation.

Let's see another example with the noun ұсыныс ("invitation"):

Kazakh English
Ол маған ұсыныс берді!! He invited me! Ол маған ұсыныс бермеді!! He did not invite me!

In the above example, we added the negation particle ме after the verb беру ("to give") in its past tense form берді ("invited") to form the negative past tense form бермеді ("did not invite"), to agree with the subject ол ("he").

Double Negation[edit | edit source]

In Kazakh grammar, it is common to use double negation, which is the use of two negative words in a sentence. This is a grammatically correct form of negation in Kazakh and is used to emphasize negation or denial.

For example:

Kazakh English
Ол менен болмайды!! He will not come with me! Ол менен жоқ болатындай болып отыр!! He is not coming with me!

In the above example, we used the negation particle жоқ to form the negative sentence, and also added the negation particle болмайды to emphasize negation.

Let's see another example:

Kazakh English
Сол лауазымның тереңі емес!! This soup is not spicy! Сол лауазымның тереңі солт емес екенін ұмытмаймын!! This soup is not just not spicy, but also not salty!

In the above example, we added the negation particle емес after the adjective терең ("spicy") to express negation, and also used the negation particle солт to emphasize negation.

Dialogue[edit | edit source]

  • Person 1: Сіз Туркіяда жұмыс істедін бе? (Did you work in Turkey?)
  • Person 2: Жоқ, мен Туркіяда жұмыс істемедім. (No, I did not work in Turkey.)
  • Person 1: Жинақты кешігіңізге барған жоқ пе? (Did you not go to the party last night?)
  • Person 2: Емес, мен жинаққа бардым. (No, I went to the party.)
