To negate verbs in Turkmen, we use the word "deň" or "diň" depending on the vowel harmony of the verb. We add this word after the verb to indicate negation. In addition, we use the suffix "-ma" or "-me" to indicate negation as well. The suffix "-ma" is used for words with front vowels (e, ä, i, ö, ü) while the suffix "-me" is used for words with back vowels (a, ı, o, u). | |||
Let's see some examples: | |||

|} | |||

Hi Turkmen learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will focus on negation in Turkmen. You will learn how to negate verbs, adjectives, and nouns in Turkmen. You will also learn about the different structures used to form negations in Turkmen.
Negating Verbs
To negate verbs in Turkmen, we use the word "deň" or "diň" depending on the vowel harmony of the verb. We add this word after the verb to indicate negation. In addition, we use the suffix "-ma" or "-me" to indicate negation as well. The suffix "-ma" is used for words with front vowels (e, ä, i, ö, ü) while the suffix "-me" is used for words with back vowels (a, ı, o, u).
Let's see some examples:
| Turkmen | Pronunciation | English |

| ýöneýär-deň | yönewjär-den | He is not going |
| ýöne-maar | yönemar | I am not going |
| ýöne-mee | yöneme | You are not going |
Negating Adjectives
To negate adjectives in Turkmen, we use the word "bolma" or "bolmaz" depending on the vowel harmony of the adjective. We add this word after the adjective to indicate negation.
Let's see an example:
| Turkmen | Pronunciation | English |
|---|---|---|
| iyi | iyi | Good |
| iyi-bolma | iyi-bolma | Not good |
Negating Nouns
To negate nouns in Turkmen, we use the word "degen" or "diňe" depending on the vowel harmony of the noun. We add this word before the noun to indicate negation.
Let's see an example:
| Turkmen | Pronunciation | English |
|---|---|---|
| gepleşýän adam | gepleşän adam | A man who talks |
| diňe-gepleşýän adam | dinew-gepleşän adam | A man who does not talk |
Negating Sentences
To negate sentences in Turkmen, we use the word "bolmadyk" or "bolmaz" depending on the vowel harmony of the verb. We add this word at the end of the sentence to indicate negation.
Let's see an example:

|---|---|---|
| Men okap bilýärin. | Men okap bilýärin | I can read. |
| Men okap bilýärin, bolmaz! | Men okap bilýärin, bolmaz | I can't read! |
