Judge or God, clemency or mercy.. Supplication, a noun, can logically be applied to any situation in which you plead to someone in power for help or a favor. Supplication: comes from the Latin verb supplicare, which means 'to plead humbly.' (etymonline.com) Supplication (also known as petitioning) is a form of prayer, wherein one party humbly or earnestly asks another party to provide something, either for the party who is doing the supplicating (e.g., 'Please spare my life.') or on behalf of someone else (e.g., 'Please spare my child's life.').

Possible Duplicate: Real quick question If you listen real close... Can you swing by real quick... Sentences like the above two are what I often hear in daily life. If I didn't hear them in the real world, I would probably be more ready to say 'If you listen really close...' and 'Can you swing by really quick...'. Is real being used as an adjective in this scenario? If so, is the usage of adj.+ adj. a common practice in English language?.

Ex Output:
As intensifiers (words that make an adjective stronger), the adjective form of a word (without the ly) is used very often instead of the adverb form in English. As some of the other answers and comments have remarked, these words are indeed adverbs because they modify adjectives. For example: bloody stupid (U.K.), wicked cold (Boston), dead certain. If you said bloodily stupid in England, wickedly cold in Boston, or deadly certain pretty much anywhere, it would sound real funny. People say real hot but don't often say real true, because real is an intensifier in the first but not the second. (See Google Ngram).

Ex Input:
How can you explain that this double negation is not a double negation? Is there a rule in English about this kind of sentence? PS / Do I have to mention Pink Floyd Copyright ? :-) Edit : Since there are a lot of Pink Floyd related explanation, I'll bring a Freddy Mercury one : 'I don't have time for no monkey business', which I also understand as 'I don't have time for monkey business'. Am I right ?.

Ex Output:
Doubled negatives are often used casually in certain dialects to indicate negative concord, an intensification of negation rather than an inversion of it. This typically happens when both words involved are simple negatives, and is most common with no standing in for a, an, or any alongside don't or ain't. So you can safely assume that He isn't not going to the concert. is double negation proper, because it has emphasis, as is She wasn't unimpressed. because this is litotes, whereas I ain't no hillbilly. is negative concord, because it's obviously casual, and uses ain't no in place of am no or am not a. (It's also a patent lie, but that's beside the point.)
