not ¹¹

把 not 放在实义动词之后,而不借助于助动词 do 来形成否定结构,是古语体用法。I know not 相当于 I do not know。再如:I care not who knows it. (I do not care...)我不在乎谁知道这件事。其他例句见 not...but $^{2}$

‘They know not the war they have begun,’ Aringarosa whispered to himself, staring out of the plane’s window at the darkness of the ocean below. (Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code) “他们不知道他们已挑起了战争,”阿林加洛沙一边望着机窗下黑暗的大西洋一边小声嘀咕着。(《达·芬奇密码》)

not/no 见 no/not...any
