“without” in Nepali language

 

While English use small word placed before the words it accompanies, Nepali use a different way. There fore we talk about “postposition” when referring those small words that are added to the word it accompanies. “-binaa” is one of them.

 

Postposition « binaa » : Located at the end of the word, « -binaa » has the meaning of « without ». Note the presence of the particule « ko » in most of the following examples.

 

a) mâ timi-binaa bâsna sâkchhu
