alt text, Francisco:

You must say "I don't see it." Here, don't is a contraction or short form for the two words "do not".

"I not see it." is unacceptable and is not used.

You could also say "I am not seeing it." or possibly "I am unable to see it."

Hola francisco:

Es es correcto, el inglés para negar algo usa auxiliares como do en presente y did en pasado.

I don't speak English.

Hola Francisco grin

Se puede decir: ''I do not want to do it!'' pero es más común, en Inglés coloquial, decir: ''I don't want to do it!''

(No) quiero hacerlo = I (don't) want to do it

No lo hagas = Don't do it! ( i.e.: Do not do it !)

No lo veo = I don't see it

Espero que te lo sirves bien grin
