Hi
what I have been taught and leaned so far was that 'unless' means 'if not', therefore it comes in a positive sentence. I went through Practical English Grammar as well, but I couldn't find a negative structure with 'unless'. However, in a worksheet I bumped into this sentence and I was shocked. Could you tell me if it's possible and if there are any exceptions or rules?
Take your camera unless you haven't brought it.
Thanks a lot.
