What exactly is the difference between "Nem menj oda" and "Ne menj oda"?


https://www.duolingo.com/profile/James947056

I'm pretty sure "nem menj oda" is incorrect. Since this is the imperative tense or command form hungarian shortens the "nem" to "ne." It should read "Ne menj oda"

Please do forget "Nem menj oda!" - it was just a typo in an other sentence in this course.

ne and nem mean no

What about the word order "Oda ne menj"? Wouldn't this emphasize the "there"?

But duolingo marks it wrong...

'Oda ne menj!' is correct too. As you say, when emphasizing "there", and also on a second account. In a very informal conversation involving an (assumed) asymmetric relationship (parent-child, dominant lover - submissive lover, etc) one could say loudly and even in a somewhat threatening way, very quickly: 'ODANEMENJ!!'
