# 否定形2 ## Tips
テキストでの teng の否定形は現代では「yo」に活用するのが一般的
* Mosadi ga a teng (Woman is not there) → Mosadi ga a yo. * Ga ke teng → Ga ke yo.
# leng (when)
* Lulu o ruta leng? - When does Lulu teach?
日常では「eng」(what)の発音と似ているが、「eng」は「えーん」と発音され、lengは「れん」と短くするとわかりやすい。
* Lulu o ruta eng? るる、おるたえーん? ( What does Lulu teach? )
* Lulu o ruta leng? るる、おるた えん?
