No siento odio hacia nadie.

Siento is the 1st person singular present tense of sentir.

• sentir = to feel
• siento = I feel

So:

• No siento... = I do not feel...

In this sentence, sentir is being used in the sense of experiencing an emotion.

Here, odio is a noun, not a verb.

• el odio = hatred / hate (noun)
• odio can also be the 1st person singular of odiar = I hate (verb form)

So compare:

• No siento odio hacia nadie. = I feel no hatred toward anyone.
  
  • Here odio = hatred
• No odio a nadie. = I do not hate anyone.
  
  • Here odio = I hate

A learner might confuse these because the forms look identical, but the structure makes the meaning clear.

Because Spanish often omits the article with abstract nouns when speaking in a general sense, especially after verbs like sentir.

So:

• siento odio = I feel hatred
• siento miedo = I feel fear
• siento tristeza = I feel sadness

Using el odio would usually sound more specific or more marked:

• Siento el odio de la gente = I feel the people’s hatred

But in your sentence, it is just hatred in general, so odio appears without an article.

Hacia means toward / towards.

So:

• hacia nadie = toward no one / towards no one

In this sentence, hacia shows the target or direction of the feeling:

• odio hacia alguien = hatred toward someone

It is a natural way to express that the emotion is not directed at anyone.

Not in exactly the same way.

1. a nadie

You would normally use a nadie with the verb odiar, not with the noun odio in this structure:

• No odio a nadie. = I don’t hate anyone.

With sentir odio, Spanish usually prefers something like:

• sentir odio hacia alguien
• sentir odio por alguien is possible in some contexts, but less neutral here

2. por nadie

Por can sometimes work with feelings, but it often suggests a slightly different relationship or cause, and it is less straightforward here.

For a learner, the safest natural pattern is:

• sentir odio hacia alguien
• no sentir odio hacia nadie

Yes, it is a kind of double negative, but that is normal and required in Spanish.

Spanish uses negative concord, which means multiple negative words can appear in the same sentence without canceling each other out.

So:

• No siento odio hacia nadie.
  • literally: I do not feel hatred toward no one
  • actual meaning: I feel hatred toward no one / I don’t feel hatred toward anyone

This is completely standard Spanish.

Compare:

• No veo nada. = I don’t see anything.
• No conozco a nadie. = I don’t know anyone.
• Nunca digo eso. = I never say that.

In English, we usually avoid double negatives in standard speech, but in Spanish they are often necessary.

Yes. If the negative word comes before the verb, Spanish usually drops the extra no.

For example:

• Nadie siente odio hacia él. = No one feels hatred toward him.

But in your sentence, nadie comes after the verb, so no must stay:

• No siento odio hacia nadie.

That is the normal rule:

• negative word after the verb → use no
• negative word before the verb → usually no extra no

Because sentir here takes a direct object, and that object is odio.

So the structure is:

• Yo siento odio = I feel hatred

You do not need me here.

Why might me siento seem tempting?

Because learners often know:

• me siento bien = I feel well
• me siento mal = I feel bad
• me siento triste = I feel sad

But that is a slightly different pattern: sentirse is often used for states or conditions.

Compare:

• Siento miedo. = I feel fear.
• Me siento triste. = I feel sad.

So in your sentence, the correct form is:

• No siento odio hacia nadie.

Both are natural, but they are not exactly the same.

No odio a nadie

• more direct
• uses the verb odiar = to hate
• means I don’t hate anyone

No siento odio hacia nadie

• a bit more reflective or emotional
• focuses on the feeling of hatred
• literally means I do not feel hatred toward anyone

So the second version can sound slightly more thoughtful, formal, or introspective.

The given order is the most neutral and natural:

• No siento odio hacia nadie.

Spanish word order is somewhat flexible, but changes usually add emphasis or sound more literary.

For example:

• Hacia nadie siento odio.
  This is understandable, but it sounds more marked or poetic.

For everyday use, stick with:

• No siento odio hacia nadie.

In standard Spain Spanish, hacia is pronounced approximately:

• AH-sya or AH-thya depending on the speaker and region

A few helpful points:

• the h is silent
• the cia part often sounds like thya in much of Spain because c before i/e is commonly pronounced like English th in think
• in Latin America, it is usually more like sya

So in much of Spain:

• hacia ≈ AH-thya

But don’t worry too much if your pronunciation is closer to AH-sya at first; you will still be understood.

It is in the present tense:

• siento = I feel

In context, this usually expresses a current state or a general truth about how I feel.

So it can mean either:

• Right now, I don’t feel hatred toward anyone
• or more generally, I am not a person who feels hatred toward anyone

The exact interpretation depends on context, but both are natural.
