If you want
to agree with someone on something
they have said you can do it in two different ways:
_ The easy way:
Agreement on
something expressed in an affirmative sentence
|
Agreement on
something expressed in a negative sentence
|
ME TOO ( yo
también)
|
ME NEITHER ( yo tampoco)
|
Examples:
Someone says
|
You say
|
I love swimming
I can drive
I am a student
I was late
I went to the cinema
I have been to NY
I will do it
I would like an
ice-cream
|
ME TOO
|
I don’t like
football
I can’t play the
piano
I am not the manager
I wasn’t interested
I didn’t apply for
the job
I haven’t been to
Thailand
I won’t go
I wouldn’t like to
be a doctor
|
ME NEITHER
|
-The not so easy way (using the auxiliary
that corresponds to the sentence that has been said before and expresses what
you agree or disagree on ):
Agreement on
something expressed in an affirmative sentence
|
Agreement on
something expressed in a negative sentence
|
SO + auxiliary + I
|
NEITHER + auxiliary + I
|
Examples:
Someone says
|
You say
|
I love swimming
I can drive
I am a student
I was late
I went to the cinema
I have been to NY
I will do it
I would like an
ice-cream
|
So do I
So can I
So am I
So was I
So did I
So have I
So will I
So would I
|
I don’t like
football
I can’t play the
piano
I am not the manager
I wasn’t interested
I didn’t apply for
the job
I haven’t been to
Thailand
I won’t go
I wouldn’t like to
be a doctor
|
Neither do I
Neither can I
Neither am I
Neither was I
Neither did I
Neither have I
Neither will I
Neither would I
|
If you want
to disagree with someone on
something they have said:
Use the
auxiliary that corresponds to the sentence that has been said and that
expresses what you disagree on.
Examples:
Someone says
|
You say
|
I love swimming
I can drive
I am a student
I was late
I went to the cinema
I have been to NY
I will do it
I would like an
ice-cream
|
I don’t (A mi no, yo no)
I can’t
I’m not
I wasn’t
I didn’t
I haven’t
I won’t
I wouldn’t
|
I don’t like football
I can’t play the
piano
I am not the manager
I wasn’t interested
I didn’t apply for
the job
I haven’t been to
Thailand
I won’t go
I wouldn’t like to
be a doctor
|
