Now that you are a little familiar with Base 2, let's try
masen, which is the negative form of masu. Look at these
yodan examples:

Watashi wa kasa o kaimasen. (I'm not going to buy


an umbrella.)
Kare wa machimasen. (He won't wait.)
Kimiko wa Osaka ni ikimasen. (Kimiko isn't going to
Osaka.)

And here are some ichidan:

Watashi wa ima tabemasen. (I'm not going to eat


now.)
Kanojo wa kasa o karimasen. (She isn't going to
borrow an umbrella.)

Easy enough, right?
