thanks for asking I have an interesting lesson for you today let's look at our

examples shall we ? I don't like watching talk shows on TV neither do I - he went to

work this morning so did I - I didn't understand your

comment he did - they'll visit their cousin next week we won't - John has been

studying Italian since 2005 me too - in this lesson we're going to look at how

to agree or disagree in a statement so stay tuned - great so we're going to agree

and disagree with a statement some people find it so hard to agree and

disagree with a statement they basically use me too for everything well that's

wrong let me tell you first that in order to watch this lesson you should be

able to understand all the tenses and all the modal verbs because we are going

to use the auxiliaries of the tenses so I suggest you review all those lessons so

agreeing with a statement in a negative sentence we use neither it has two

pronunciations neither or neither you can choose so for example I don't

like watching talk shows on TV I said right the other person or yourself would

say neither or neither do I - now the formula for this answer would be neither

obviously or neither plus auxiliary the auxiliary of the sentence of the other

statement of the other person so if I say I don't like

you understand that the axillary would be DO right so neither do and then the

pronoun or the subject so if you're talking about yourself

neither do I or neither does she for example talking about Mary okay so

it depends now let's look at another example he won't be late for the meeting

he won't be late for the meeting so neither or neither will she another

person neither or neither will she so neither plus auxiliary the auxiliary is

will because he's talking about a future sentence so neither will and then the

subject or the pronoun neither will she - so what happens if the sentence is

positive and you want to agree you use SO he went to work this morning he went

to work this morning and I want to say me too right ? - in this case you can say

me too - so did I so did I or me too so plus the auxiliary of the other

person's statement did because this went right is the past of the verb to go so

did I - so did I - now another example they've lost their pen so I would say so

has he - so plus auxiliary of the present perfect because the statement was using

the present perfect so has he so has he okay let's take a look at the

disagreeing part now - if the statement is negative then you would use subject or

the pronoun plus the auxiliary let's take a look at the example I didn't

understand your comment I didn't understand your comment the person the

other person would say he subject sorry or pronoun he did - he did

so I disagree with that statement in the negative if it's a negative

statement I would say he okay the subject did the same auxilary of the

statement of the original statement he did in the past - obviously now another

example he doesn't work on Mondays he's very lucky! he doesn't work on Mondays I

do - I the subject and then the auxiliary of the statement the original statement

I do - now let's take a look at a positive sentence to disagree with a positive

statement I will use the subject plus the auxiliary plus not - so the

introductory example was - they'll visit their cousin next week - they'll visit

their cousin next week we won't ! so the subject or the pronoun we will

not won't we won't okay because the original was in the future and I use the

same auxiliary of the future we will not we won't - another example she's from Italy

she's from Italy I'm not I'm not I am NOT you can say I am not but we usually

contract it and we say I'm not I'm not I am NOT which is the verb to be and the

verb to be you know that it works by itself right so the auxiliary is the

verb to be and you use it to disagree with a positive sentence

in this case right ? I'm not you cannot say if you want to for

example she isn't from Italy and you want to disagree with that I would say I

am I am - no I'm - we cannot contract I am we use I

am a not I'm - but if you add not you can contract it I'm not because you're

stressing not right - there okay let's take a look at me too - so if the

statement has to be positive to use me too - let's take a look at my example my

introductory example - John has been studying Italian since 2005 I would say

me too - me too or I could say so have I

very good or you can say - like John I too have been studying Italian okay - this is

another usage or another example or another way to say the same thing or you

can even use as well - John has been studying Italian since 2005 and you can

say I have so auxiliary of the present perfect because we're talking about the

present perfect simple right there a present perfect continuous sorry I

and then the auxiliary is have or has I have as well - as well instead of TOO as

well which means TOO - now be careful when the sentence is negative like in this

case John has never been to Australia never is the negative part right of the

sentence - John has never been to Australia and then you would answer me

neither or me neither or even say neither or

neither have I and we use the same auxiliary

in this case have neither have I - or you can say like John I have never been to

Australia either ! EITHER okay like John I have never been to Australia either well
