In english you say "I didn't do anything"

In greek we say "I didn't do nothing"

In english you say "I don't know anything"

In greek we say "I don't know nothing"

In english you say "I don't go anywhere"

In greek we say "I don't go nowhere"

I'm certain that you, being native english speakers, find the above greek phrases strange/wrong.

On the other hand, I, being greek, find the english phrases strange/wrong.

maj.

The question is, why should I -in klingon-, write {vay' vIqaSmoHbe'} instead of {pagh vIqaSmoHbe'} ? Why should I write {vay' vISovbe'} instead of {pagh vISovbe'} ? Why {vogh vIjaHbe'} instead of {pagh Daq vIjaHbe'} ?

Why should I follow the english way of expressing the above, instead of the greek ?
