Pronunciation

  • IPA(key):
  • Audio(file)
  • Hyphenation: so‧ha
  • Rhymes: -hɒ

Adverb

soha

  1. never

Usage notes

Just like other adverbs with a general negative sense (senki, semmi, sehol etc.), it is used with another word of negation in Hungarian (double negation):

  • Soha nem láttam még elefántot. ― I've never seen an elephant (yet).

or

  • Nem láttam még elefántot soha. ― like above

However, if one of its alternative forms is used instead, no other negative follows (because these alternative forms already incorporate a negative sem or se):

  • Sosem láttam még elefántot. ― like above

If it is separated from the verb, the negative appears again (strictly speaking, resulting in a triple negation):

  • Nem láttam még elefántot sosem. ― like above
