Misc.

~まい (NEW!)

~まい is the opposition of the volitional form (よう). It means "will not".

Careful of two exceptions:

• する => すまい
• くる => こまい

[!info] Example この{川|かわは{危|あぶ}ないようだ。ここで{泳|およぐ}ぐ==まい==。 This river seems dangerous. I won't swim here.

~得る・~得ない (NEW!)

{得|え}る means "able to", "possible". Can be conjugated: えない, えた, えなかった. Made by:

• adding まい to a V-る (dictionary form)
• removing the ます stem from a verb and adding まい

[!info] Example それはあり?==得ない==。 That is impossible.

⚠ Can also be read うる (on this tense only).

ぬ (NEW!)

It is the traditional negative form of verbs: ぬ instead of ない. Exceptions: する -> せぬ くる -> こぬ いる -> あらぬ

[!info] Examples {彼女|かのじょ}はここにはあら==ぬ==。 She is not here.
