    "不"、“没”、“别”的用法

    Negatives: bù(不) ,méi(没) and bié(别) are the common negative words in Chinese.
    1. bù(不) applies to all conditioners. Bù不hǎo好 (Not good): bù(不) is also used with verb shì(是) (bù shì :It is not)
    2. méi(没) with verb yǒu 有(méi yǒu, Have not).
    3. All other verbs follow the pattern: bù(不) means 'will not' : wǒ bù qù 我不去。 I won't go. méi(没)means 'did not': wǒ méi qù我没去。 I didn't go.
    4. bié(别) is used with a verb, meaning “Do not” in a request or command: bié qù 别去。Don’t go.
