Grammar detail: やしない negative
やしない negative
Tweet
107 words
My current mastery of this grammar point:
verb stem
+ やしない
means will not ~
The やしない negative form is basically the same as the standard negative form. However, where the standard negative expresses an objective statement of fact, the やしない form indicates more of the subjective perspective of the speaker.
For example:
- Where できない means 'you cannot do', できやしない might be translated as '(in my opinion) you won't be able to do'.
- In Japanese, 見えやしない is roughly the equivalent of 見ることができないだろう.
Note that はしない may be used instead of やしない. They are more or less equivalent; やしない is slightly more emphatic, or indicative of a negative outcome.
