1. Affirmative Agreement

             When indicating that one person pr thing does something and then adding that another does the same. Use the word so or too. To avoid needless repetition of words from the affirmative statement, use the conjunction and followed by a simple statement using so or too. The order of this statement will depend on whether so or too is used.

        1.  When a form of the verb be is used in the main clause, the same tense of the verb be is used in the simple statement that follows.

             affirmative statement (be) + and + subject + verb (be) + too

             so + verb (be) + subject
 example : I am happy. You are happy
                  1. I am happy and you're too.
                  2. I am happy and so are you.

        2. When a compound verb (auxiliary + verb), for example, will go, should do, has done, have written, must examine, etc. occurs in the main clause, the auxiliary of the main verb is used in the simple statement, and the subject and verb must agree.

                   Affirmative statement + and + subject + auxiliary only + too

                   so + auxiliary only + subject

example : They will work in the lab tomorrow. You will work in the lab tomorrow.

                  1. They will work in the lab tomorrow and you will too.

                  2. They will work in the lab tomorrow and so will you.

 

     3. When any verb except be appears without any auxiliaries in the main clause, the auxiliary do, does, or did is used in simple statement. The subject and verb must agree and the tense must be the same.

            Affirmative statement + and + subject + do, does, or did + too

            (single verb except be)       so + do, does, or did + subject

 example : Rizal goes to that School. My brother goes to school.

                   1. Rizal goes to school and my brother does too

                   2. Rizal goes to school and so does my brother

  

2. Negative Agreement

           Either and Neither function in simple statements much like so and too in affirmative sentences. However, either and neither are used to indicate negative agreement. The same rules for auxiliaries, be and do, does, or did apply.

          Negative statement + and + subject + negative auxiliary or be + either

          neither + positive auxiliary + subject

Example : I didn't see Azin this afternoon. Kini didn't see Azin this afternoon.

                  1. I didn't see Azin this afternoon and Kini didn't either.

                  2. I didn't see Azin this afternoon and neither did Kini.
