In the Urdu language, نہیں (nahi) and نہ (nah) are the most important words for negation.
They are equivalent to “no” or “not” in English. Being able to use these words of negation in your own Urdu sentences is a huge milestone, as it will allow you to communicate more complex thoughts.
Here are a couple of examples of how these words can be used:
یہ نہ کرو۔
yeh na karo.
“Don’t do this.”
میں تم سے ناراض نہیں ہوں۔
mein tum se naraz nahi hun.
“I am not angry with you.”
