Usage notes

edit

Non usually contracts in speech with a following definite article or personal pronoun (a, as, o, os). The result of this contraction, in the past written as nono, no-no, n'o, among other forms, is [nona], [nono], [nonas], [nono] in the east and central areas and [na], [no], [nas], [nos] in the west. Today these contractions are rarely shown in written Galician:

Non o queres? ("You don't want it?"): IPA(key): (central) [nõnoˈkɛɾɪs], (western) [noˈkɛs].
