AFFIRMATIVE AGREEMENT
When indicating that one person or thing does
something and then adding that another does the
same, use the word so and too. To avoid needless
repetition of words from the affirmative
statements, use the conjunction and, followed by a
simple statement using so and too. The order of
this statement will depend on whether so and 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
OR
affirmative statement (be) + and + so + verb (be) + subject
EXAMPLE :
I am happy, and you are too.
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 (compound verb) + and + subject + auxiliary only + too
OR
affirmative statement (compound verb) + so + auxiliary only + subject
EXAMPLE :
They will work in the lab tomorrow, and you will too.
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 the simple
statement. The subject and verb must agree and the tense
must be the same.
affirmative statement (single verb except be) + and + subject + do, does, or did + too
OR
affirmative statement (single verb except be) + and + so + do, does, or did + subject
EXAMPLE :
Jane goes to that school, and my sister does too.
Jane goes to that school, and so does my sister.

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
OR
negative statement + and + neither + positive auxiliary or be + subject

•I didn’t see Mary this morning. John didn’t see Mary this morning.
I didn’t see Mary this morning, and John didn’t either.
I didn’t see Mary this morning, and neither did John.
•John hasn’t seen this movie yet. I haven’t seen this movie yet.
John hasn’t seen this movie yet, and I haven’t either.

8.You didn’t pay the rent, and he _____ either.
9.Jack shouldn’t run so fast, and neither _____ you.
10.He didn’t know the answer, and neither _____ I.

NEGATION
To make a sentence negative, add the negative
particle not after the auxiliary or verb be. If there is no
auxiliary or be, add the appropriate form of do, does,
or did and place the word not after that.
John is rich. John is not rich.
Sandra is going to Hawaii.Sandra is not going to Hawaii.
Mark has seen Bill. Mark has not seen Bill.
Mary can leave now. Mary can not leave now.

NEGATION
The following examples contain no auxiliary, and thus
use do, does, or did.
Marvin likes spinach. Marvin does not like spinach.
Isaac went to class. Isaac did not go to class.
They want to leave now. They do not want to leave now.

NEGATION
•Hardly, barely, rarely, seldom, etc.
Remember that in an English sentence it is usually
incorrect to have two negatives together. This is
called a double negative and is not acceptable in
standard English. The following words have a
negative meaning, and thus must be used with a
positive verb.

hardly almost nothingrarely
barelymean or seldom meanalmost never
scarcely almost not at allhardly ever
EXAMPLES
John rarely comes to class on time.(John usually doesn’t come to
class on time)
Jerry hardly studied last night. (Jerry studied very little last night).
She scarcely remembers the accident. (She almost doesn’t remember
the accident).
We seldom see photos of these animals. (We almost never see
photos of these animals).
Jane barely arrived on time. (Jane almost didn’t arrive on time).
I hardly ever go to sleep before midnight. (I usually don’t go to sleep
before midnight).

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.
Close the door. Leave the room.
Please turn off the light.Open your book.
Open the window. Be quiet.

NEGATIVE COMMANDS
A negative command is formed by adding the
word don’t before the verb.
Don’t close the door.
Please don’t turn off the light.
Don’t open the window.

INDIRECT COMMANDS
Usually the verbs order, ask, tell, or say are used to
indicate an indirect command. They are followed by
the infinitive [to + verb].
John told Mary to close the door.
Jack asked Jill to turn off the light.
The teacher told Chris to open the window.
Please tell Jim to leave the room.
Jojo ordered Bill to open the book.
The policeman ordered the suspect to be quiet.

NEGATIVE INDIRECT COMMANDS
To make an indirect command negative, add the
particle not before the infinitive.
John told Mary not to close the door.
Jack asked Jill not to turn off the light.
The teacher told Chris not to open the window.
Please tell Jim not to leave the room.
Jojo ordered Bill not to open the book.
