"I don't want...(object)" is '...がほしくないです' (...ga hoshikunai desu) in Japanese.

― Example: I don't want an apple - りんごがほしくないです (ringo ga hoshikunai desu)

- りんご (ringo): apple

- が (ga): subject marker

- ほしくないです (hoshikunai desu): don't want

"I don't want...(to do sth.)" is a bit more complicated in that the verb must be conjugated. First, you should conjugate the verb into the '-masu' form. Next, drop the 'masu,' forming the stem of the verb. Finally add たくないです to the verb stem.

― Formation example: 読む (yomu) → 読みます (yomimasu) → 読み (yomi-) → 読みたくないです (yomitakunai desu)
