    A double negation is a double negation, which means affirmative. For example: "He's not not coming" means he's coming. A sentence that includes a double negation is a double negation sentence. For example:

    I have to admit that it was mine.

    "Having to" is a double negative.

    The original meaning of this sentence was: I admit that it was mine.

    Double negation is literally known as having two negative words in a sentence that means affirmatively.

    A double negative sentence is relative to a simple negative sentence, which uses the form of negation plus negation to express the meaning of affirmation. It is generally accepted in general grammar books that the function of a double negative sentence is to strengthen the tone.

    There are three main forms of double negative sentences. One is the use of two negative adverbs, one is a negative adverb plus a verb with a negative meaning, and the other is a negative adverb (or a verb with negative meaning) with a rhetorical mood. In these three sentence patterns, the negative adverb (or verb with negative meaning) plus the rhetorical tone has the effect of strengthening the tone.

    For example, "Isn't the one who dares to do this a hero?" (Inner Mongolia Visits to Ancient Countries), which means "a hero", but the tone is stronger, emphasizing that the person who dares to do so is a "big hero".

    Double negation means that there are two negative words to enhance the tone of the sentence, that is, the meaning of the affirmative sentence.

    A double negative sentence is a sentence that contains two negative words. The double negative means yes, but the tone is a little stronger than the affirmative sentence of Ha Chongsen!

    For example: I have to admit that I made a mistake! = I admit I made a mistake.

    There are two "nos" in the above sentence!

    Another example: there's no reason why you shouldn't do it! = You have to do it!

    The above sentence contains two negative words, "no land" and "no"!

    Commonly used double negative words:

    1. I have to, I can't, I won't, I don't want to, I don't dare not.

    2. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

    3. Don't ......Not ......There is no ......Not ......, non-......Cannot.

    There are four main forms of double negative sentences.

    One is the use of two negative adverbs, such as: not that I don't want to; I had to do it.

    The second is a negative adverb (or verb with negative meaning) with a rhetorical tone. For example, there is no reason why he should not answer**.

    Another is to first explain a precondition for the exclusion of FanXun, and then use a negative adverb to interpret the previous condition.

    In these four sentence patterns, the negative adverb (or verb with negative meaning) plus the rhetorical tone has the effect of strengthening the tone. For example, "Isn't the one who dares to do this a hero?"

    Inner Mongolia Visits to the Ancients"), which means "a hero", but the tone is stronger, emphasizing that the person who dares to do so is a "great hero".

    Never, no, no, no, not no, impossible no, no....Not ......There is no ......Not ......, non-......Not ......, non-......Cannot. , no, no, no, not necessarily.

    In English, double negative sentences are a very special sentence pattern, which can play an expressive function that general negative sentences and affirmative sentences do not have. Double negation sentences are usually understood only as affirmative tones, while ignoring the other two skills, namely emphasizing negation and euphemistic negation.
