"awanai" and "aenai" (base1+nai vs. base2+nai) What's the difference?
I think I saw "aenai" being used. I think I heard it in a song. Is there a difference between these two?

Question

Answer

au (meet) --> awanai  (not meet)
aeru (can meet)  --> aenai ( cannot meet)
They are different verbs. 

There are many other pairs like:
aruku(walk) -- arukeru(can walk)
yomu(read) -- yomeru(can read)
oyogu(swim) -- oyogeru(can swim)
