Witty Profiles
A linguistics professor was lecturing his class the other
day.
“In English,” he said, “a double negative
forms a positive.
However, in some languages, such as Russian, a double
negative
remains a negative. But there isn’t a single language,
not one,
in which a double positive can express a negative.”
A voice from the back of the room piped up,
"Yeah,
right."
