3.5.1.1. Manual markers

The negative particle not, described in [Lexicon – 3.11.1], frequently cliticizes to verbs. The following are some examples: 

know^not

 

 

come^not

 

 

Note that when not functions as a clitic, its movement is reduced, its location is displaced towards that of the verb, and thus, it fuses with the articulation of the verb, in contrast with the way it is articulated as a free morpheme [Lexicon – 3.11.1].
