Negation
If you want to create a negative sentence, you add a negating adverb 不 before the verb. It’s almost identical to English not, though it goes before instead of after the verb.
| 这不是我的姐姐 |
| This is not my older sister. |
This works for every verb except one: 有. This takes a special negation particle 没.
| 我们没有钱 |
| We don’t have money. |
