My brain crashes whenever someone throws a double negative sentence at me.....
or I read a double negative sentence somewhere.I am literally unable to understand what that sentence means and I go into panic mode whenever I come across one. Lately been getting anxiety because of this issue and I am afraid it's going to negatively impact my interview performance if someone asks me a double negative question. So my question is how often do you guys come across double negative sentences in office setting be it work related or just chatting up with your coworkers?
I don't take no nonsense in the form of double negatives. Grammer is grammer!
It could get worse than double negatives, though, like double positives.
Heard about the grammar teacher who was explaining double negatives? She pointed out that in some languages double negatives are used to emphasise the negative. But in English a double negative actually makes a positive as one negative cancels the other one out.
"However," she explained , "there is no language in which a double positive makes a negative."
And a voice at the back piped up:
"Yeah, right!"
(But, to answer your question, I almost never come across double negatives in the workplace, not in the finance industry anyway.)
