Double Negatives
What's wrong with this sentence: "We can't find nothing to do."
It has TWO negatives!
"We can't find nothing to do."
As you know, words like
no
not
nothing
no one
nobody
never
nowhere
barely
scarcely
hardly
are all negative words. In English, we can only use one negative at a time.
So the sentence above is correct if we change one of the negatives.
Example: "We can't find anything to do."
"Anything" is a positive word, and now we only have one negative in the sentence.
