fare. mé gó ést nüsü (I didn't see anybody). In Italian would be rendered with: io non ho visto nessuno . el ga mài lauràt (he has never worked). Italian: non ha mai lavorato. The forms: ghéra mìa niènt de fa and mé gó mìa ést nüsü are tolerated while the form el ga mìa mài lauràt is not. A less common way to express negation is the use of the particle nó before the verb or before the proclitic subject pronoun. This form has almost everywhere been replaced by the use of mìa. It seems to have crystallized uniquely in few expressions like:mé nó crède! (I don't think so!)gne nó 'l va, gne nó' 'l vé. (neither it goes, nor comes it).
