Re: Double Positives

In Spanish a double negative is still a negative, and more, in some sentences 
is necessary. You can't say some sentences in a single negative.

        A linguistics professor was lecturing to his class one day. 
 
 "In English," he said, "A double negative forms a positive.
 
 "In some languages, though, such as Russian, a double negative is
 still a negative.
 
 "However, there is no language wherein a double positive can form a
 negative."
 
 A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."
