without what ?

[vital acorn]

ne

[ionic shore]

ne amène la négation à la phrase
ne brings the negation to the sentence

Souvent le "ne" est accompagner d'un autre mot (ne + pas / ne + plus..)
Often the “ne” is accompanied by another word (ne + pas / ne + plus..)

[vital acorn]

when do we not accompany the ne with the other words?

[ionic shore]

Dans les poèmes ou d'autre écritures romancier je pense
In poems or other novelist writings I think

En langage courant souvent on ne dit pas le "ne" mais uniquement le "pas"
In everyday language we often don't say "ne" but only "pas"
For exemple : "Je n'ai pas faim" become "J'ai pas faim"

thank youu : )

[ionic shore]

No problem ^^

[tardy herald]

@vital acorn aucun X [...] ne is a form of negation that means no X [...]

like Personne... ne ou rien... ne

hopfully for you i had the context of the sentence 😉

[vital acorn]

holy shit wait yeah you're right it does use aucune... ne tyty : )

[timid salmon]

In this case, because the verb is pouvoir, the regardless of the subject you can use ne without pas
but as Pharma says, if the subject is already rien / personne / aucun·e, then it's just a standard negation

[tardy herald]

i know the song they were talking about haha, so i know the subject, mentionned in the previous verse, is aucun
