I'll add two more that I know, if that's okay with you. Please correct me if there are mistakes.
ne ... guère = hardly
Je n'ai guère compris! = I hardly understood (anything)!
ne ... aucun(e) = not ... any, no
The word "aucun(e)" must agree with the noun that it is describing. If it is describing a feminine noun, then you must include the "e." (i.e., Je n'ai acheté aucune pomme. = I did not buy any apples.)
Je n'ai acheté aucun billet.* = I did not buy any tickets.
*Unlike most negative constructions in compound tenses, the second part of the negative, "aucun(e)," does not follow the first conjugated verb. It instead goes after the second conjugated verb.
