Too & Either
We can use these words to show that something is the same as another thing.
As well and also have the same meaning as too. These words are only used with positive verbs. If the verb is negative, use either:
| Positive | Negative |
|---|---|
 I had a terrible time last night. I did too.  |
I didn't have a good time last night. I didn't either. |
 He loves pizza. I do as well.  |
He doesn't like pasta. I don't either. |
 I should study more often. I should also.  |
I shouldn't go to bed late tonight. I shouldn't either. |
So & Neither
Another way to agree with people is to use so or neither:
| So Neither |
am / is / are was / were do / does / did have / has can / will / should |
... |
| Positive | Negative |
