Negation

Now you learn how to say 'no' and 'not'. To use a negation, say it before what you are negating. 'Na' is not a prefix but is treated as one.

Xo na jenu pizo. (or) Na xonajenu pizo.
I don't like pizza.

The second sentence is grammatically correct. 'xonajenu' is one the verbs you will learn how to use in Lesson 22. Either way is fine, but the sentence with the long verb is more formal.
