__TOC__


== Basics of Negation ==
==Genders==
Negation in Latin is quite simple. To make a sentence negative, all you need to do is add the word ''non'' before the verb. For example:
Old English (ca. 450-1100) has three genders: masculine, feminine, and neuter. The gender of a noun affects the form of the article and the adjectives that are used with it.  


* ''Ego ambulo'' (I walk)
===Masculine===
* ''Ego non ambulo'' (I do not walk)
Masculine nouns are usually used for male people or animals, but they can also be used for things such as ships and tools. Masculine nouns usually end in -a or -e.


You can also use ''non'' with adjectives and adverbs. For example:
===Feminine===
Feminine nouns are usually used for female people or animals, but they can also be used for things such as plants and countries. Feminine nouns usually end in -o or -u.  


* ''Ego sum bonus'' (I am good)
===Neuter===
* ''Ego non sum bonus'' (I am not good)
Neuter nouns are usually used for things such as objects and ideas. Neuter nouns usually end in -n or -m.


* ''Ego ambulo celeriter'' (I walk quickly)
==Examples==
* ''Ego non ambulo celeriter'' (I do not walk quickly)
Here are some examples of nouns in each gender:  
 
== Common Negation Phrases ==
In addition to the basic negation structure, there are some common phrases and expressions that use negation. Here are some examples:  
 
* ''Non est verum'' (It is not true)
* ''Non est necessarium'' (It is not necessary)
* ''Non est possibile'' (It is not possible)
* ''Non est certum'' (It is not certain)
* ''Non est dubium'' (It is not doubtful)
