for emphasis, as "Lauxdata estu Dio!" Praised be God!; or to please the
ear, as "Oni min admiras", instead of "Oni admiras min", People admire
me.

"Note".--Care must be taken in placing the word "ne." Its usual place is
before the verb, when it negatives the whole sentence. Study the effect
of placing "ne" in different positions in the sentence "Mi deziras vidi
Johanon kaj lian fraton", I wish to see John and his brother:--

(i.). "Mi ne deziras vidi Johanon kaj lian fraton", I do not wish to see
John and his brother.

(ii.). "Mi deziras ne vidi Johanon kaj lian fraton", I wish not to see
John and his brother, "i.e.", I wish to avoid seeing them.

(iii.). "Mi deziras vidi ne Johanon, sed lian fraton", I wish to see not
John, but his brother.

(iv.). "Mi deziras vidi Johanon kaj ne lian fraton", I wish to see John
and not his brother.

"Ne tute" means "not quite," while "tute ne" means "not at all."

"Jam ne" means "no longer." "Not yet" is "ankoraux ne".

Words which are already international, such as "microscope, telephone,
automobile", etc., are adopted unchanged, except as to the spelling and
termination, as "mikroskopo, telefono, auxtomobilo."
