In deiner Muttersprache
Negation uses nicht, kein and negative pronouns, with placement affecting scope.
Ich habe kein Auto.
I have no car.
In Deiner Lernsprache
Im heutigen Englisch steht not normalerweise bei einem Hilfsverb; in vielen einfachen Gegenwarts- und Vergangenheitsformen braucht man do/does/did.
I do not know.
not = macht den Satz negativ
Lernende lassen do/does/did manchmal weg oder setzen not an die falsche Stelle.
Same block, different coding
Both languages use this block strongly, but they signal it differently. Focus on form changes, not only meaning.
