Select the negative words that should be changed to a positive word or removed to make the sentence correct.

David isn’t [not] ready to go [to] camp because he is [nervous] to be [away] from home. Nobody [never] told him that he would be [so] busy that he would have time to miss nothing!

HELP!

Answer:

Remove not, and change never into ever and nothing into everything.

David isn't not isn't grammatically correct. Nobody never doesn't make sense, either, so changing it to ever, a positive word, makes it more grammatically correct. Miss nothing is also a bit strange, so change it to everything.

Hope I explained it to you. :)

Answer:

your answers are not and never

Step-by-step explanation:

isn't and not are both negatives and this is called a double negative so not does not have to be there and never should be ever because it makes more sense than saying nobody never that is also a double negative so it should instead be ever.
