It's pretty close in meaning to "nal-". Possible differ= ences are:
*"nalviska" implies having eyes but being unable to see, or havin= g no sight
but other senses, whereas "narviska" means simply not seeing. So = I'd describe
a table as "narviska", but not "nalviska".
*If "nar-" is followed by more than one rafsi, it negates the who= le following
string of rafsi, whereas if "nal-" is followed by more than one r= afsi, it
negates just the next one, or just the seltau.
