Vergessen Sie nicht! icon Vergessen Sie nicht!

The position of “nicht” in a sentence is complicated in German. When you want to negate a separable-prefix verb, “nicht” is placed right before the prefix (second-to-last element).

Houssem geht heute Abend nicht aus. 
Ich lese nicht weiter.
Die Kinder machen die Bücher nicht zu.
Hans ruft seinen Freund nicht an.

Remember that “nicht” is always placed in front of “gern” when expressing that you do not enjoy doing something.

Wir spielen nicht gern Golf.
Ich esse nicht gern Pizza.
Anja sieht nicht gern fern.
Andy fährt nicht gern Ski.
