How are you
On lesson 23, the future tense post) you wrote the sentence, Machin sa pral pa w. Why the pa, if its not a negative sentence? (THE CAR WILL BE YOURS)
In that case I was talking about the possessive pronouns:
If you were using the following possessive pronouns and you needed to make a negative sentence, you would have to use yet another "pa" in your sentence. See examples below. Hope this helps.
The followings are possessive pronouns
pa mwen (pa m) → mine
pa ou (pa w) → yours
pa li (pa l) → his, hers
pa nou (pa n) → ours
pa yo → theirs
Examples:
Sa se pa m. - This mine.
Manje sa se pa w. - this food is yours.
Liv sa se pa li. - The book is his.
Kay la se pa nou. - The house is ours.
Magazen an se pa yo. - The store is theirs.
Kote pa m? - Where is mine?
Using negative sentences
Manje sa se pa pa w. - This food is not yours
Liv sa se pa pa m. - This book is not mine.
