The Final nie in Afrikaans Negative Sentences

An interesting syntactic property of Afrikaans is the use of the so-called double negative in sentences which express a negative proposition by means of a negation word like geen ('no', 'none', 'not (any)'); geeneen ('no one'); geensins ('by no means', 'in no way'); g'n ('never', 'not'); nerens ('nowhere'); nie ('not'); niemand ('nobody'); niks ('nothing'); nooil ('never')
