We (in english) have the idiomatic expression: "Never say never..." Do you have one similar? "Ne jamais dire jamais?" Or something else?

But does the order change if the verb tense changes? Can I say " Il n'a rien mangé?
Chris C1 Kwiziq Q&A super contributor Correct answer
I talked to a native speaker and cleared this up. "Il n'a rien mangé" is the only correct form. Similarly "Il ne m'a rien dit" is correct, whereas "il ne m'a dit rien" is infact incorrect and sometimes heard being used by small children. I hope that clears this up. -- Chris (not a native speaker).
Chris C1 Kwiziq Q&A super contributor
I have heard the sentence "Il ne m'a dit rien du tout" said by a native French speaker. It set off bells in my head because, just as yourself, I learned to say "Il ne m'a rien dit". Apparently "Il ne m'a rien dit" emphasises that he really told nothing at all. Emphasis by inversion? Apprently it is possible.

Bonjour Diana,
One point of emphasis is that there is a very large gap between written French and spoken French. I learned that the negation using le passé composé is in the form:
noun + ne + auxiliary verb + negation, i.e. pas, rien, etc. + past participle. While le passé composé is the conversational past preferred, I do believe the correct syntax is like noted above.

But does the order change if the verb tense changes? Can I say " Il n'a rien mangé?
Why does jamais come afetr the verb?
Ron C1 Kwiziq Q&A super contributor
Bonjour Taejah,
That is a fixed form that is used in negation. Similarly there are other fixed forms in French negation such as ne. . . pas, ne. . .plus, etc. Please see the following link which goes into greater detail.
https://french.kwiziq.com/my-languages/french/glossary/24

To that end, in compound verb tenses and moods, «ne precedes the auxiliary verb with «jamais», for example, following it, «jamais» is then followed by the past participle.
Example:
Je n'ai jamais voulu manger encore de pomme.
Bonne chance et bonne continuation.
Why does jamais come afetr the verb?
Laura Kwiziq team member Correct answer
Bonjour Susan, Ne ... jamais = "never." Je ne vais jamais à la plage - I never go to the beach. Ne ... pas = "not." Je ne vais pas à la plage aujourd'hui - I'm not going to the beach today.

Notice that to say never , you use ne.. jamais around the conjugated verb.
Note: ne becomes n' when in front of a vowel or mute h .

if jamais means never, then what does pas means??
The word 'pas' means not , a negation , but it is most often accompanied by 'ne' just as ne....jamais :
Je n'ai pas de lait = I have no milk ( Lit- I do not have any milk )
Take a look at the following Kwiziq lesson -
But words on their own are nothing without context so beware!
Pas means not too but when we have never(jamais) we cut pas.
Nous n'allons jamais au cinéma. = We never go to the movie theater.
Tu ne fais pas de sport ! =You don't do sports!
if jamais means never, then what does pas means??

i know the verb écouter takes a direct object and in the example above (Je n' écoute jamais le prof) it's rather obvious. in another lesson however, there's an example like (tu n'écoutes jamais Alice).. my question is: how can i tell the meaning of the sentence, i mean when i read the example i thought someone is saying to Alice that she never listens, not the actual meaning of someone is saying to another that he\she never listens to Alice!
If I have undertood your question correctly -
Tu n'écoutes jamais Alice = You never listen to Alice
Alice ne t'écoute jamais = Alice never listens to you
Alice, tu n'écoutes jamais! = Alice, you never listen!

Sorry, hit the wrong key. Why is the syntax not <> It seems from the examples that you still use the regular articles, whereas other forms use <> I don't see an example that offers a direct comparison, so maybe I've missed something?
Sorry, my computer is doing strange things?
Why is the syntax not "Je ne mange jamais DE tomates?" Other negative forms use "Elles n'ont plus DE sucre."

I am not entirely clear what your question is. If you are asking "what is a COD" then here is the answer:
COD stands for C omplément d' O bjet D irect, i.e., a direct object to the verb. It is usually something that the verb's action is directed toward. The concept of COD exists also in English. But don't be mislead: there are instances where a certain verb takes a COD in one language but not in the other. Here are a few examples of COD, with the COD highlighted:
Je mange une pomme. -- I eat an apple . Les voisins ont acheté une nouvelle voiture . -- The neighbors bought a new car .
Here an example where the French takes a COD but the English does not.
Tu m' attends? -- Are you waiting for me?
By the way, it might be a good idea to goolge the term.
Not sure about your question, could you explain?
Ah, and here one which isn't a COD in French but it is a COD in English:
Il a téléphoné à son copain hier. -- He phoned his friend yesterday.
