I'm looking for an example to show that there can be Algebras over a field $F$ of characteristic 2, which follows $[x,y] = -[y,x]$ and the Jacobi identity, but is not a Lie Algebra.

what extra condition does it have to satisfy to become a lie algebra? – Jul 10 '17 at 17:23

It has to satisfy $[x,x] =0$ for all $x$ belonging to the Lie algebra – Mike Jul 10 '17 at 17:26

Like I understand what the problem is when the characteristic of the field is 2 for an abstract Lie algebra, but I can't think of a concrete example. – Mike Jul 10 '17 at 17:59
