In French, the basic word order for affirmative sentences follows the Subject-Verb-Object (SVO) pattern, similar to English. However, negative sentences have a different word order.

Affirmative Sentences:

• Je parle français. (I speak French.)
• Nous aimons voyager. (We love to travel.)

Negative Sentences: In negative sentences, the negation is formed by placing "ne" before the verb and "pas" after the verb.

• Je ne parle pas français. (I don't speak French.)
• Nous n'aimons pas voyager. (We don't love to travel.)

If the sentence includes a pronoun object, the pronoun is placed between "ne" and the verb.

• Je ne la comprends pas. (I don't understand her/it.)

In the case of compound verbs (verbs with two parts), "ne" precedes the auxiliary verb, and "pas" follows the past participle.

• Je n'ai pas compris. (I didn't understand.)
• Nous ne sommes pas allés au cinéma. (We didn't go to the cinema.)

It's important to note that "ne" is often omitted in spoken French, especially in informal contexts, but it's still required in formal written French.
