~んな is an another expression of ~るな.
(る changes to ん)
Basically, a verb+な makes a negative imperative expression.
Thus, the verb do (する) + な makes 「don't do」.
For example,
- Don't do such things -> そんな事(such things)するな(don't do)
- Don't eat this food yet -> この食べ物(this food)は、まだ(yet)食べるな(don't eat).
- Don't take photos -> しゃしん(photos)をとるな(don't take)
~んな is an alternative word of るな; however, ~んな is a strong and rude form of るな. People may be impressed you as an aggressive person if you say 「~んな」 to someone.
For example,
- しゃべんな (しゃべるな)-> don't talk
- すんな (するな) -> don't do
- たべんな (たべるな) ->don't eat
PS: You can use this construction for any verb that ends with る.
