Nunca dica "I don't know nothing"

É o seguinte! Estamos acostumados em português a falarmos coisas tipo não entendi nada, ou não sei nada. Mas em inglês não pode! Segue o thread que eu explico!
Concordam comigo que são frases com dupla negação? Bem, pelo menos em inglês são! Por isso que é terminantemente proibido você colocar o don’t junto com o nothing:
A frase “Não entendi nada”, então, ficará I didn’t understand anything ou I understood nothing! Mas nunca, jamais I didn’t understand nothing. Pois aí, como falei acima, você estará usando uma double negative!
"Eu não sei nada" tem que ficar "I don’t know anything" ou "I know nothing!" Nunca escreva "I don’t know nothing!"

Outro exemplo:

- Ela nunca dança com ninguém

- She never dances with anyone (ao invés de She never dances with nobody)

Estamos entendidos? So see you next time!
