Negative response.
Contexto cultural
Lithuanians value directness. Saying 'Ne' is not considered rude. Similar directness is found in Latvia and Estonia. In meetings, 'Ne' is used to signal a hard 'no' to avoid wasting time. Lithuanian youth use 'Ne' in texts exactly as adults do.
Genitive Case
Always remember that negating a verb usually puts the object in the genitive case.
Don't use 'Ne' for 'Nėra'
This is the most common mistake. 'Ne' is for 'no', 'Nėra' is for 'does not exist'.
