我不吃肉。

When to use

Use this phrase to inform the restaurant staff that you do not eat meat. This is crucial for vegetarian or vegan diets.

How it works

This follows the basic Subject + Negation + Verb + Object structure.

• 我 (wǒ): I
• 不 (bù): not (negation)
• 吃 (chī): to eat
• 肉 (ròu): meat

Negation

The character '不 (bù)' is the standard negation particle used before verbs to indicate a negative present or habitual action. For past actions, '没 (méi)' is used instead.

Notes

State a dietary restriction clearly and concisely to restaurant staff.
