Okay, not to be a whacky grammar person or anything, but this lesson is going to be not, not really good. If you catch my drift. We're simply going to have a totally not, not awesome time!
Yup, today's lesson is all about double negatives. Ready? Set? Don't, don't go!
negative, casual form
the negative form of the casual/plain form, can also be called ない-form (e.g. {食|た}べる → {食|た}べない, {飲|の}む → {飲|の}まない).
Example:
→ 彼は冷えていない飲み物は飲みません。
He doesn't drink beverages that are not chilled.
Negative form い-adjective(Noun)はない・はnegative verb
Example:
→ 私は面白くない本は読まない。
I don't read books that are not interesting.
な-adjective/nounじゃない(Noun)はない・はnegative verb
Example:
→ この店におしゃれじゃないドレスはない。
This shop doesn't have any dress that isn't stylish.
