The verb is хотіти. Case is accusative, for this noun it's the same as nominative

You need to keep practising and get your ear more attuned; she definitely says не. It takes time! You'll get used to it.

I answered without a period at the end and got it wrong; tried again when the sentence came back up, added the period , and got it right. Curious if anyone else has seen this...
