Perguntas sobre exemplo de orações com, e a definição e o uso de "Not"

A: @minion6
It's not about means something like its not like that or that's not what you mean to say. You want to say something else.
Example:
It's not about that!

A: This depends on context.

It can be a rhetorical question. So, in that case, it is not really asking why something should not be done (although that is the meaning), but saying let's do it.
Do you want to go to the beach today?
Why not? Let's go.

It can also be used literally, as defined by @Loua.
I can't get the report done.
Why not?
I don't have all the information.

A: "And that's not it" would best be described as the Japanese equivalent それだけではなく, meaning that's not the only thing or there is more information

A: "Definitely not."

A: never

A: "Not longer" and "no longer" have different uses in English. "Not Longer" would be used to say "This shoes is not longer than that shoe," used for comparing two things. "No longer" would be used for example when someone is fired from their job "The employee is no longer working with the company" it could also be used to talk about time, "The meeting will be no longer than 45 minutes." In this context, "no longer than" equals the maximum amount of something.

A: Its commonly used with "don't know," such as "I don't know whether or not I should go" or "She doesn't know whether or not she got accepted."
Other example:
I will finish the movie, whether or not I like it.

also, people often put "not" after the verb or omit it altogether and use "whether" like "if." For example: "I don't know whether I should go (or not)" or "She doesn't know whether she got accepted (or not)"

A: - It's not like I talk to him or anything.
- The concert is supposed to be really good but it's not like I can afford it.
- It's not like that's going to change anything.
- It's not like that!
- It's not like I'm going to pass the test anyway.

Those are all the examples I can think of, but there are plenty more that are used in every day speech. Feel free to ask more questions about it!

A: Hello! :) Here you go:

A: Like what was answered above, "ain't" is a slang and considered quite improper. You don't hear it a lot, especially with common situations. "Am not" is almost always used, unless someone tends to use slang a lot.

A: They can be interchangeable, sometimes, though with slightly different meaning (ちょっと意味が違います):
A: Do you have time to talk?
B: Not really. (いや、ちょっとないんですよ)
B: Not much. (あんまりないけど【ちょっとある】)


A: Do you have any money I could borrow?
B: Not really. (あ、今はちょっとむりですよ)
B: Not much. (あんまりない【でも少しならある】)

Sometimes they are not interchangeable:
A: How much milk is left?
B: Not really. (✕ あってない)
B: Not much. (あと少しだけ)

really = 本当に、実に
not really = そう～～でもない
It's really hot today = 今日実に暑いですね。
It's not really hot today = そんなに暑くない。

much = ～が沢山

Placement in the sentence makes ALL the difference!
I really don't have time! - 本当に時間がないんだよ。
I don't really have time. - あんまり時間がないんですけど。

A: "If you are satisfied with my answer", or
"If you are already satisfied with my answer"

A: "Not" negates a verb (i.e. "I do not want").

"No" negates a noun (i.e. "No smoking")

A: Unless is used to describe something that will happen if something else doesn't happen. For example, "I will walk to school unless it rains," which means that I will walk to school if it does not rain.

"Not unless" is a little more situational. You would probably only use it if asked a yes/no question, to which the answer is "no" with an exception. For example, "are you going tomorrow?" "Not unless there's food." In this case, the person is saying he will only go if there is food. Outside of such a situation, you probably won't find "not unless."

A: “Feathers grow on the back?”

A: pero, actually, the information is not IN / INSIDE the sheet of paper ... because there is no INSIDE or OUTSIDE of a piece of a paper. However, the information would be IN / INSIDE a book.

Basically, if there is an opening for something, use IN. If it's a flat surface, use ON.

So, the only way you could say "the information is inside this sheet of paper." is if the paper was folded & you have to actually open it to get the information.

A: "it's not always like that"
