    A teacher was telling his primary school class about negatives in different languages.
    For example, in english, two negatives make up a positive statement, whereas a negative and a positive make a negative statement.
    There are some languages where a negative followed by a positive is a positive statement. In Russia, two negatives still make another negative statement.
    He told them however, that there is no language where two positives make a negative meaning.

    A kid down the back shouts out: "Yeah, right!"
