Gramática 2:
These expressions are placed either before or after a verb. If placed after, you need a no before the verb.
No estudio nunca. No quiero nada.
Nada and nadie can also be subjects – in this case they go before a verb.
Nada me interesa. Nadie me quiere.
Don’t forget that nadie refers to people, so you need an a before it when it’s an object.
No vimos a nadie.
Use ninguno and ninguna to say none, not anyone, or not a single one. They usually match the gender and of
who they are describing. They are usually singular.
¿Has visto a mis amigos? No vi a ninguno [de tus amigos].
Change ninguno to ningún right before a noun.
No tengo ningún amigo.
If something began in the past and is still continuing, use this formula:
Use sino when you want to say but or rather, as in not this, but something else instead.
No quiero estos sino estas.
