Question

Which of the following sentences contains a double negative? Ice cream is delicious. They don’t never have chocolate. I didn’t get two scoops. Vanilla is not my favorite.

Answer 1

Your answer is B. They don't never have chocolate. Hope this helps you.

Answer 2

The answer is "They don't never have chocolate".

Explanation:

Even though some variants such as African American English admit the use of a double negative, in standard English, it is ungrammatical the use of this type of construction. In this case, "don't" and "never" have a negative meaning.

There are two possible correct versions of the given sentence:

1. They don't ever have chocolate.
2. They do never have chocolate.
