2. Discover

Read the “Advanced negation” examples as communication models. Identify what must stay stable and what you can change.

3. Understand

Study the Albanian pattern in the examples and connect each form with its function in the sentence.

Sot nuk kam folur me askënd.Në këtë zyrë askush nuk punon natën.Nuk blej më gazeta të shtypura.Nuk kam qenë kurrë në atë qytet.Asnjë nga këto përgjigje nuk është e saktë.Mos i jep askujt fjalëkalimin tënd.

The Albanian verb system has forms that do not always map to one English tense. Start from the situation and the Albanian form.
