I have always thought that while I am learning French about that double negative. ne pas Je ne pas . . . This speaks to me that French is big on being negative, I spoke to my French speaking husband, and he didn't get it.
This leads me to this video, which has subtitles, by the way. Language channels the way that people think and how they see the world.
Directions for watching this video
1. Watch passively.
2. Watch, write down unfamiliar words you don't know. Stop the video and look up the words.
3. Watch again and notice how much more you understand now.
Good Luck!
