Yesterday's Word - Previous Words - Help

nunca, adverb
never

You use nunca rather differently from English: when you use nunca after the verb phrase you need to insert the negative word no before the verb phrase:

No lo he visto nunca.
I’ve never seen it.
No viene nunca.
He never comes.

However, if you put nunca in front of the verb, it stands on its own.

Nunca viene.
He never comes.
Nunca he visto cosa igual.
I’ve never seen anything like it.
