Questions with double negatives are commonly the most confusing type of question. For example, "Isn't it true that you don't disagree?" tends to trip people up because of the two negatives present in the sentence.
To correct a misplaced modifier, you can move it closer to the word or phrase it is meant to modify to clarify the intended meaning of the sentence. Ensure that the modifier is placed in a logical position to avoid confusion or ambiguity for the reader. Always double-check your sentence to confirm that the modifier is clearly and appropriately describing the correct subject.

A double preposition occurs when two prepositions are used together in a sentence. For example, in the phrase "from behind," both "from" and "behind" are prepositions working together to show the relationship between the objects in the sentence.
Double negatives are illogical.
Yes. For example:Shouldn't the answer be no?Also, you just did when you asked that question.However, generally you do not have 'shouldn't' and 'no' in the same sentence because that would be a double negative. For example:I shouldn't have no candy left. The sentence the author was probably meaning would be 'I shouldn't have any candy left.' With two negatives in there, the sentence means 'I should have candy left' because two negatives cancel one another out.I shouldn't have no candy. = I should have some candy.
Your sentence is not correct as it contains a two negatives - did'nt and no. In the English language double negatives cancel each other out and form a weak positive. In conversation you could say 'he did not have legs'
Fred isn't going to not jump off the building. Two negatives: 'isn't' and 'not'
A Positive
Nobody has ever given me a bad report. Double negatives cancel each other out. Consider the following sentence: "I don't like no onions." You're essentially stating that it is untrue that you don't like onions (or that you don't like 'no onions' and therefore you *do* like 'onions').

You have to removed the double negative, but in a way that maintains the meaning of the sentence as intended."I ain't got no money." In this the man is trying to say he has no money. So removing either the word "ain't" or "no" would be sufficient. (And yes, there are further grammar modifications to be made in that example.)"I didn't not take the money." In this the man is actually the taker of the money, and removing one of the words "didn't" or "not" will not correct it. One must remove the word "not" and change "didn't" to "did".
