Instead of:
I didn’t speak with nobody
Join Our School
We say:
I didn’t speak to anyone
Teacher’s Note
In English, we have to watch out for double negatives.
When we say “I didn’t speak”, the last words must be “to anyone” to avoid a double negative. This error is particularly common for Spanish speakers.
