na 2 . na, ind. a particle of negation equi- valent to ‘not,’ ‘no,’ ‘nor,’ ‘neither’ [cf. no, na- nu, na-hi, na-tarām], and in the Veda a particle of comparison; it is used as a negative particle in wishing, requesting, and commanding (e. g. na mā garan nadyaḥ, let not the waters swallow me; nāvaman- yeta kañcana, let him not despise any one), but not in prohibition before an imperative, and not before the aorist when it has lost its augment and stands for an imperative (in both which cases mā, q. v., is used). When joined with the potential, na may often have the sense of ‘that not,’ ‘lest,’ ‘for fear lest’ (e. g. na tvāṃ śapet, lest he should curse thee). In argumentative writings na often comes at the end of a hypothetical argument in the sense ‘not so’ (e. g. nanu na kiñcin mānam iti cen na, now if it be said that there is no proof, not so). Two nas are not unfrequently used in the same sentence to intensify an affirmation (e. g. na khalu na tat kariṣyāmi, I will most certainly do that; na tu jātu na, most assuredly), or any other negative particle may be joined with na with the same effect (e. g. nādaṇḍyo 'sti, he is not to go unpunished, i. e. he must cer- tainly be punished). When a negation has to be repeated in successive clauses of a sentence or in successive sentences, na may be simply repeated or may be strengthened by one of the particles uta, ca, api, cāpi, vā, athavā (e. g. nāham asyāraṇyasya devatā na cāpy asya gireḥ, I am not the deity of this forest nor of this mountain), or the negative is not expressed in the second clause but represented by vā or api vā or ca standing alone (e. g. na hṛṣ- yati glāyati vā, he neither rejoices nor desponds), or two clauses may have the negative particle and not a third (e. g. na deveṣu na Yakṣeṣu mānu- ṣeṣv api cānyeṣu tādṛg rūpavatī dṛṣṭa- pūrvā, neither among gods nor Yakṣas nor other mortals has so beautiful a female been before seen). Na is sometimes placed before round or collective numbers to denote a deficiency, the deficient number being prefixed in the inst. or abl. case (e. g. ekayā or ekena na viṃśatiḥ, not twenty by one, i. e. nine- teen; pañcabhir na catvāri śatāni, 395). When na is the negative of the simple idea expressed by a word, it may be regarded as compounded with it, and is then identical with 3. a, q. v. (e. g. na-vidvas, unwise; nādhīta, unread; na-kiñcana, q. v.) Na is often joined with other particles, e. g. na ca, na cāpi, nāpi, nota, na vā, naiva, na caiva, nāpi ca, na tu, na tveva, na tveva tu, na cet (see ced), na khalu, na ha (after this last a verb is said to retain its accent if used in the future with an imperative sense, Pāṇ. VIII. 1, 31). Na is frequently used in early Vedic composition as a particle of com- parison = ‘like,’ ‘as,’ ‘as it were’ (e. g. tvā nāvaṃ na dhīmahi, we meditate on thee like a boat; cf. 3. a, which also in a few instances = ‘like’); it is also found in this sense in the later artificial poems; [cf. Lat. ne, non; Gr. νη in νη-κηδής; Lith. ne; Slav. ne; Goth. ni, ne, nei; Angl. Sax. na; Old Germ. ni; Hib. ni.]

(a) A particle of negation equivalent to ‘not,’ ‘no,’ ‘nor,’ ‘neither’, and used in wishing, requesting, or commanding, but not in prohibition before the imperative mood. (b) Used with the potential mood na may sometimes have the force of ‘lest,’ ‘for fear lest,’ ‘that not;’ kṣatriyairdhāryate śastraṃ nārtaśabdo bhavediti Rām. (c) In agrumentative writings na often comes after iti cet and means ‘not so.’ (d) When a negative has to be repeated in successive clauses of the same sentence or in different sentences, na may be simply repeated or may be used with particles like uta, ca, api, cāpi, vā &c.; nādhīyītāśvamārūḍho na vṛkṣaṃ na ca hastinaṃ . na nāvaṃ na kharaṃ noṣṭraṃ neriṇattho na yānagaḥ ..

(f) In a few cases na is retained at the beginning of a negative Tatpuruṣa compound; as nāka, nāsatya, nakula; see P. VI. 3. 75. (g) na is often joined with other particles; naca, navā, naiva natu, naced, nakhalu &c. &c. (h) It is also used, especially in early Vedic literature, in the sense of ([Page 0604-b]) ‘like,’ ‘as,’ ‘as it were’; gāvo na gavyūtīranu; Śi. 20. 4. v. l. Comp. — asatyau (m. du.)
