Presentation transcript:

6.2 © and ® 2011 Vista Higher Learning, Inc There are many ways to express negation (la negazione) in Italian. The simplest way is to place the word non before a verb (or an object pronoun and a verb). Lorenzo non esce con noi stasera perché è impegnato. Lorenzo is not going out with us tonight because he is busy. Negation

6.2 © and ® 2011 Vista Higher Learning, Inc Many other expressions that begin with non can be used to make sentences negative. Non is placed in front of the verb and is followed by another word after the verb. Unlike in English, more than one negative expression can be used in the same sentence. Allora, non faccio più niente! Well, I wont do anything else! Claudia non dice mai niente a nessuno. Claudia never says anything to anyone. Negation

6.2 © and ® 2011 Vista Higher Learning, Inc Note where the different negative expressions are placed in the sentences shown in the chart. Non precedes the auxiliary verb in compound tenses, and, depending on the negative expression, the other element follows either the auxiliary verb or the past participle. Negation

No one settled in that part of town. Nulla sarebbe piaciuto ai nipoti di Tommaso. Nothing would have pleased Tommasos grandchildren. Negation

Mi ha licenziato senza alcuna/nessuna spiegazione. They have fired me without any explanation. Non cè alcun/nessun problema. There isnt any problem. Negation
