使用する際の注意点

• This verb is especially frequent in the imperative (nōlī, nōlīto, nōlīte) because its imperative form is used as the negation in a polite form of negative imperative: nōlī / nōlīte (singular/plural, respectively) + [infinitive], literally "Be unwilling to [ bare infinitive ]," reflecting the substitution of nolle + [infinitive] for ne + [second-person present subjunctive], the latter phrase having the literal meaning of "May you not [ bare infinitive ]." Examples:

  Nōlīte spēluncās intrāre!

  Don't (you people) enter the caves!

  Nōlī īrāscī.

  Don't become angry.

  Nōlī āvorsārī.

  Don't recoil.

  Nōlī putāre.

  Don't think.

  Nōlītōte mīrārī.

  Don't be surprised.

  Nōlītō putāre.

  You shall not think.

  Nōlīte, hospitēs, ad mē adīre.

  Don't approach me, strangers!

  Nōlīte, jūdicēs, exīstimāre.

  Don't judge, judges!

  Nōlī mē tangere (dīcit eī Iēsūs): nōndum enim ascendī ad Patrem meum. Vāde autem ad frātrēs meōs et dīc eīs: ascendō ad Patrem meum et Patrem vestrum et Deum meum et Deum vestrum.

  Jesus saith to her: Do not touch Me: for I am not yet ascended to my Father. But go to My brethren and say to them: I ascend to My Father and to your Father, to My God and to your God.

• Sometimes the verb volō (“to wish, to want”) is used pleonastically with this verb:
• Sometimes followed by a negative, which does not undo the negation.

Conjugation

The present active indicative voice was defective during the Classical period, only having synthetic forms in the first-person singular, first-person plural and third-person plural; the second-person singular, third-person singular and second-person plural were expressed by nōn with forms of volō. Old Latin had a second-person singular nevīs as an alternative to nōn vīs and a third-person singular nevolt as an alternative to nōn volt; in addition, a contracted second-person plural nōltis is attributed by Diomedes to the Old Latin author Caecilius Statius. No contracted forms of nevīs or nevolt are attested.

Old Latin.
