SO is used to show agreement with
positive statements.
To express positive agreement we use:
SO + Auxiliary* + Subject
Example :
Too is
used when the verb is in the affirmative form.
We can use subject + auxiliary verb + too
Example :
SO
|
AUXILIAR
|
SUBJECT
|
|
I like
dogs
|
So
|
Does
|
Mary
|
I went to
the movies
|
So
|
did
|
Mary
|
Either is used when the
verb is in the negative form. To express negative agreement we use: Subject + Auxiliary
verb + not + either
SUBJECT
|
AUXILIAR (negative
form)
|
EITHER
|
|
I don’t like cats
|
John
|
Doesn’t
|
Either
|
I did’t like mouse
|
Shelly
|

Neither is used to show
agreement with negative statements.To express negative agreement we use
Neither + Auxiliary verb + Subject
Example :
NEITHER
|

|
SUBJECT
|
