The Korean grammar point ~지 않다 (ji anta) is a way to express the negative form of verbs and adjectives. It can be translated into English as "to not" or "not to". This grammar structure is essential in Korean as it allows speakers to negate actions and states.
~지 않다 is used to negate the action of a verb or the state of an adjective in a sentence.
