Souvenez: Remember:
A verb is made negative by placing ne before it and pas after it: ne (verb) pas
In the inverted questions form, ne is placed before the verb while pas is placed after the subject pronoun : ne (verb + pronoun) pas
Example: Ne travailles-tu pas après les cours?
The e of the ne is dropped before a vowel or silent h: Je n'arrive pas à l'heure.
The word si is used to contradict a negative statement. Example:
Ne parlez-vous pas français?
Si, je parle français.
