.    Affirmative Agreement
     in the Affirmative Agreement there is the word so, too, and also have the same meaning that also, too, and too. But in use there is a difference, so used before tobe (s) and auxilliaries (auxiliary words).

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 :    She is smart and you are too.
                                 She is smart and so are you.

2.      When a compound verb (auxiliary + verb), for example, will go, should do, has done, have written, must examine, etc.

                        Affirmative statement + and + subject + auxiliary only + too

                                                           so + auxiliary only + subject

      example :   He should finish her homework and you should too.
                                   He   should finish her homework and so should you.

3.      When any verb except be appearswithout any auxiliaries in the main clause, the auxiliary do, does, or did is used in simple statement.

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

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

Example :      bella goes to campus and my mother does too

                     bella  goes to campus and so does my mother

B.     Negative Agreement

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

                                                   neither + positive auxiliary + subject

example :  I didn’t see mary  this night and adi  didn’t either

                     I didn’t see Mary this night  and neither did adi

C.    Negation

To make a sentence negative, add the negative particle not after the auxiliary or verb be.

Example :   John is rich     John is not rich

The following examples contain no auxiliary and thus use do, does, or did.

Example :  They went to campus      They did not go to campus

D.    Commands

A command is an imperative statement. One person orders another to do something. It can be preceded by please. The understood subject is you. Use the simple form of the verb.

1. Close the window                

2. Please turn on the light       

3.     openyour bag             

Negative commands: A negative command is formed by adding the word don’t before the verb.

1. Don’t close the window

2. Please don’t turn on the light
