not
(negation particle)
 Zarikavan
  ⤷ Neutral
Notes
versatile negation particle.
immediately follows verbs and nouns to produce their logical complement. (dogs not = non-dogs, dance not = to not dance)
also may immediately follow modals.
this removes the ambiguity between
"i (can not) run."-->"run can not I" and "i can (not run)."--> "run not can I"

additionally, it can precede the whole sentence to negate it, "it is not the case that"
