gaghị: Will Not

Level 2

gaghị + verb. With I: agaghị m.

How It Works

Gaghị is the future negative.

ExampleMeaning
Ọ gaghị abịa echi.He or she will not come tomorrow.
Agaghị m abịa.I will not come.
Ha gaghị eri nri.They will not eat.

The helper and the negative suffix are one word, gaghị, and the verb follows after a space. The same hyphen rule applies as for naghị: none is written. With m the helper takes an a- in front, giving agaghị m.
