The lecturer says: “Languages may have a double negative with a negative meaning, a double negative with a positive meaning, and a double affirmative with a positive meaning - but no language has a double affirmative with a negative meaning!” And from the back of the hall comes: "Yeah, yeah."
A life's work defeated by an unrecognized counter-instance.
Now THAT'S funny.
Now THAT'S funny.
