We need an alternative word instead "not" for doing it. So we use "'''nicht'''" instead "not" if it's not for nouns.

Look at this example again, we delete the "ein / eine => an/ a" becuse it's better, but you can say "Ich bin nicht ein Lehrer => I'm not a teacher", but I don't think a '''native speaker''' says "Ich bin '''kein''' ...". As you wish.

Hello everybody,

In today's lesson you will learn some simple négative sentenses.


In the previous lesson‌ (Introduction), we learned how to say " I am --- ". In this lesson, we learn how we can say "I am not ---". Follow the lesson, please.

We use "nicht" if it's not for nouns.

Example :

  • Ich bin Lehrer.

I'm a teacher.

  • Ich bin Lehrer nicht.

I'm not a teacher.

When it comes to nouns, we use "kein" (for masculine and neuter) or "keine" (for feminine).

Example :

  • Ich bin Lehrer.

I'm a teacher.

  • Ich bin kein Lehrer.

I'm not a teacher.

Look at this example again, we delete the "ein / eine => an/ a" because it's more natural for native speakers.
