1 Presentation: So and neither

We use so/neither + auxiliary verb + I to show that we have something in common with

another person.

We use so + auxiliary verb + I when we agree with positive statements.

"I’m hungry." - "So am I".

When there is no auxiliary verb, we use do when we reply.

"I like ice-cream". - "So do I".

We use neither + auxiliary verb + I when we agree with negative statements.

"I’m not hungry." - "Neither am I".

"I don’t like football". - "Neither do I".

The reply should be in the same tense as the first statement.

"I liked the film." - "So did I.".

2 Practice

Complete the answers with the correct words. Sometimes you’ll need to use more than one word.

1. "I like tennis." "So do I."
