英語(yǔ)笑話

715　Double Positive 雙重肯定

A linguistics professor was lecturing his class. “In English,” he explained, “a double negative forms a positive. In some languages, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, there is no language in which a double positive can form a negative.” A voice from the back of the room piped up, “Yeah, right.”

一位語(yǔ)言學(xué)教授正在給學(xué)生講課。他解釋說(shuō)：“在英語(yǔ)里，雙重否定構(gòu)成肯定。在別的語(yǔ)言中，比如俄語(yǔ)，雙重否定還是否定。然而，沒(méi)有一種語(yǔ)言可以用雙重肯定構(gòu)成否定?！边@時(shí)候，從教室的后面蹦出一個(gè)聲音：“是啊，對(duì)！”
