"The action itself is placed in an infinitive form" is not quite true in Finnish... The form depends on the tense and mood, as you can see in these examples. --Mikko Silvonen 14:26, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Copyediting required
[edit]This article needs serious copyediting so that it includes all forms of the negative verb in the F-U languages; for example, the North Sámi example makes no mention whatsoever of the supinum form of the negative verb. -Yupik 09:47, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Chinese and Dravidian languages sections
[edit]They explain negation, not specifically negative verbs. — TAKASUGI Shinji (talk) 10:05, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
- Is the Japanese 〜ない somehow a 'negative verb', as described by the article's lead section?
- I don't think the non-Uralic languages described match the definition at all. --88.113.162.167 (talk) 21:37, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
