1. Right answer:
nadie
Negation is an expression that means no and is used to contradict some or all of the meaning of a positive sentence. There are many other negative words and phrases that you can use to negate a positive statement besides the basic form no. One of this word is nadie and is generally used when talking about a person. Thus:
- ¿Ves al muchacho en la moto?
- No, no veo a nadie
2. Right answer:
nadie
In the question, ¿Quién pudo ir a la fiesta? the word quién means who. So, the word quién is used for asking which person is involved in something, or what someone's name is. Since we want to know who came to the party, that is, we want to know which person is involved in this action, thus we use the word nadie as a negation. Finally:
- ¿Quién pudo ir a la fiesta?
- Nadie pudo ir.
3. Right answer:
nada
The word nada translates into nothing and means not anything. Since we are talking about an object or a thing that the teacher didn't put in the backpack, we need to use the word nada because this word refers to things. So this sentence is given in the past. Finally:
El profesor no puso nada en la mochila.
4. Right answer:
nadie
Here we want to know if something is on the table. Thus, we ask the question: What's on the table? Perhaps there is a flowerpot, food, a fork, a spoon, a knife, etc. All these elements are things, therefore we also use the word nada here. Finally, the dialogue is as follows:
- ¿Qué hay encima de la mesa?
- No hay nada encima de la mesa.
5. Right answer:
ni...ni
Another way to negate a positive statement besides the basic form no is the form ni...ni. This means in English neither...nor and is used for showing that something is not true of two people or things. Therefore, I don't want to go neither the pool nor the beach. Finally:
- ¿Quieres ir a la piscina?
- No. No quiero ir ni a la piscina ni a la playa.
6. Right answer:
ningún
We use ningún and their different forms as adjectives, before a noun. Recall that an adjective is a word that gives us more information about a noun or pronoun. So, we need to shorten some Spanish adjectives when they precede a singular masculine noun. This is the case of ningún that comes from ninguno and has been shortened because papel is a masculines singular noun. Finally:
No hay ningún papel en el escritorio.
7. Right answer:
ningún
Here we also use the word ningún as an adjective. Recall that we need to shorten some Spanish adjectives when they precede a singular masculine noun. Since sobre is a masculine singular noun, we have shortened the word ninguno into ningún. Finally, we have the following sentence:
Ella no tiene ningún sobre.
8. Right answer:
nunca
The word nunca translates into never and means at no time, or not at all. Here this word is used as negation as well. Unlike English, double negatives are acceptable in Spanish. So in this sentence, the first negative word is no and the second one is nunca. Finally:
No voy nunca al estadio
9. Right answer:
nunca
Here I want to negate something, that is, I don't like fish as food, thus I never eat fish. So, no can be used a one-word negative answer. On the other hand, nada, nadie, tampoco and nunca/jamás may be used in one-word answers. This is the case of this sentence, nunca is being used as one-word negative answer.
Nunca como el pescado
10. Right answer:
jamás
The word jamás also translates as never. Here I want to negate something, that is, my mom never eats fish. It is important to say that sometimes, we can have three negative words or four negative words in the same sentence and unlike English, Spanish doesn't normally mix negative and affirmative words. Finally:
Mi mamá jamás come pescado
