[LESSON VI.]
Formation of Negative Sentences.
Tidak, no.
Tiada, is not (are, was, were, do, did not, &c.).
Bukan, no, not.
Jangan, don’t, let not.
Antah, I know not; who knows? there is no saying.
Jangan-kan, not only, not, so far from.
Bukan is a more emphatic denial than tidak. It is also used, either alone or with the affix -kah, to signify is it not? is it not so?
