Talk about memorable events

SO

SO is used to show agreement with positive statements. SO + Auxiliary + Subject (pronoun) The Auxiliary needs to agree with the verb tense in the

original statement. It is similar to using TOO at the end of a sentence. Eg. I am crazy about English ->So am I I was born in 1994 -> So was I I like it -> So do I I have been to cusco -> So have II went to the cinema yesteday -> so did I

NEITHER Neither is used to show agreement with negative statements. Neither + Auxiliary + Subject (pronoun) The Auxiliary needs to agree with the verb tense in the original

statement. It is similar to using either at the end of a sentence,

although Neither is more commonly used, especially in spoken English.

A: I don't understand Spanish.B: Neither do I. (= I don't understand Spanish either.)

A: I cannot swim.B: Neither can I. (= I can't swim either.)

Sometimes people respond Me Neither instead of Neither + Auxiliary + Subject though this is very informal spoken English.

Question tags are short questions at the end of statements.

They are used to: confirm that something is true or not, AND to encourage a reply from the person we are speaking to.

A positive statement is followed by a negative question tag.

*Jack is from Spain, isn't he?*Mary can speak English, can't she? When the verb in the main sentence is in the 

present simple we form the question tag with do / does.*You play the guitar, don't you?*Alison likes tennis, doesn't she?

If the verb is in the past simple we use did. They went to the cinema, didn't they? She studied in New Zealand, didn't she? ( + ) , ( - ) ( - ) , ( + ) When the statement contains a word with a negative meaning,

the question tag needs to be positive. He hardly ever speaks, does he? They rarely eat in restaurants, do they? They aren't funny, are they?

SAME TENSE
