They all mean the same thing - no/not and negating whatever statement they're associated with. In this case - "don't or doesn't see".

Hi all.

Can anyone explain the difference between οὐ , οὐκ, and οὐχ and which one should be used. Specifically I can't seem to wrap my head around which version should be used with οἶδα

Thanks :)
