A conversation I just had moments ago at work:
Christy: No class right now?
Korean Teacher: Yes.
Christy: So I do have class?
Korean Teacher: No.
Christy: So no class today?
Korean Teacher: Yes.
Christy: Okay.
I showed up for the class just in case. I didn't have it. So no class today. No.
"Wadsworth, am I right in thinking that there is nobody else in this house?"
ReplyDelete"No."
"Then there is someone else in this house?"
"No, sorry, I said "no" meaning "yes.""
""No" meaning "yes"? Look, I want a straight answer, is there someone else or isn't there, yes or no?"
"Um, no."
"No, there is, or no, there isn't?"
"Yes."
