Explicação da Regra:

不 (bù) is generally used to negate a verb in the present or future, or to talk about what you do not do, as a habit. So expressing things like "I don't want to go" or "I'm not going" or "I don't eat meat" would be typical uses of 不 (bù). The standard way to negate verbs in Chinese is with 不 (bù). To negate a verb, simply place 不 (bù) before it: Subj. + 不 + Verb + Obj. • 他们不是坏孩子。Tāmen bù shì huài háizi.They are not bad kids. • 我们不喝酒。Wǒmen bù hējiǔ.We don't drink alcohol. • 我今天不想工作。Wǒ jīntiān bù xiǎng gōngzuò.I don't want to work today. • 你不喜欢我吗？ Nǐ bù xǐhuan wǒ ma?Do you not like me? • 为什么你不喜欢喝咖啡？Wèishénme nǐ bù xǐhuan hē kāfēi?Why don't you like to drink coffee? Almost all verbs can be negated with 不 (bù) (unless you're talking about the past). The only verb that can never be negated with 不 (bù) is 有 (yǒu). • 我不有时间。Wǒ bù yǒu shíjiān. • 我没有时间。Wǒ méiyǒu shíjiān.I don't have time.
