意思
Used to indicate that something never happens or has not happened.
文化背景
The proverb 'Jamais deux sans trois' is used constantly to predict that if an event has happened twice, it will happen a third time. In Quebec, 'jamais' is sometimes used in the phrase 'pas jamais' in very informal, non-standard speech, though it is grammatically incorrect in standard French. The phrase 'À jamais' is a staple of Romantic poetry, used to express eternal love or eternal sorrow. The phrase 'Plus jamais' has become a political slogan used in France to refer to historical tragedies or social movements.
Drop the 'ne'
If you want to sound like a local, drop the 'ne' in spoken conversation. 'Je sais jamais' sounds much more natural than 'Je ne sais jamais'.
The 'De' Trap
Remember that 'jamais' triggers the change of articles to 'de'. It's 'jamais DE café', not 'jamais LE café'.
