which setence contains a double negative A- RON IS SELDOM LATE FOR A MEETING. B- YOU SHOULD HESITLATE BEFORE RAISING YOUR VOICE. C- THE COMEDAIN DIDN'T SAY NOTHING FUNNY D- THE CAKE CAN'T BAKE IN COLD OVEN HELP ME MEDAL
First, may I ask you if you have any ideas on what the answer might be ?
A double negative is sort of like this ....He wasn't going to not attend the meeting. There are 2 negatives in that sentence: wasn't and not And that is why it's called a sentence with a double negative, so do you have any ideas now ?
A
A only includes one negative, 'seldom', so that is not the answer.
Any more ideas ?
it's not c
How is it not C ?
I agree. I would like to know this too.
Is there a problem ? @iambatman
Well ? @Freez Why did you cancel C ?
fine c
Do you know why ?
You sound like you know this is incorrect.
Even though it might not be. Don't be so sure of yourself.
*sigh* It is C because C has double negatives in it. The 2 negatives are: didn't and nothing
Do you understand ? @Freez
That is correct.
yes, thx
