no lo

not it

→ no
phrase Extremely common #80
not it Compositional: no negates the verb, and lo is a direct object pronoun usually meaning "it" or sometimes "that". In full sentences, this often becomes natural English like "I don't need it" or "don't take it..." Lo can also refer to a whole idea or situation, so English may not always translate it word for word.

EN: I don't understand it.
