While I know what you meant, this doesn't say what you meant in either of the two common variations of {na}. CLL-na moves naku to the front; "standard idiom"-na amounts to a naku in the same place. In either case the negation scopes over the {.e}, which inverts it, resulting in "It's not true that ... for both V and C", i.e. "It's false that ...for at least one of V or C". You wanted either {.a} instead of {.e}, terminal {naku}, or (if you're into experimental cmavo) {na'ei} in the same place as your {na}.
