Negative form !

hello there ! Today's topic is very important: Saying NO ! (hahaha, useful, ain't it?)

Firstly, "no" in Japanese is   いいえ  (iie).

Secondly, we have already learnt how to say "It is" so now we will learn how to say "It is not"

Let's get on with this tiny useful thing :D

"It is not" <--->  じゃありません (jaarimasen)

Pattern:      A  じゃありません


       It is not A.


Example:        ねこ じゃありません

                            It is not a cat.

------------------

Let's put together everything that we already know ^o^ !

いぬ ですか ?

Is it a dog?

いいえ、いぬ じゃありません

No, it is not a dog.

ねこ です。

It is a cat.

Not at all complicated AND we can now say positive and negative sentences! Good news :)
