Picture something being put on the table — a claim, a saving, a value — and then a single word spoken over it: not. Nothing is smashed and nothing is taken away; it is simply declared not to count. Everything on this page is that one move, aimed at a different target: at a statement, at a benefit, or at a number.
From the word’s history
The packet's Wiktionary entry derives negate from Latin negatus, the perfect passive participle of nego, to deny, refuse, or decline, plus the verb-forming suffix -ate. The saying-no move is therefore in the word from the start.
封包裡的 Wiktionary 記錄說,negate 來自拉丁文 negātus,是動詞 negō(否認、拒絕)的完成被動分詞,再加上構成動詞的字尾 -ate。也就是說,「說不」這個動作從一開始就在這個字裡。
