English note From Mrs. ISHANAFIAH
- Use “Too” and “So” to combine two POSITIVE statement with identical predicates
- Use “Either” and “Neither” to combine two NEGATIVE statement with identical predicates
EXAMPLE :
Neno recognizes me. Nana recognizes me
- Neno recognizes me and so does Nana
- Neon recognizes me and Nana does too
- Terry musn’t go home late and you musn’t either
- Terry musn’t go home late and neither must you
- Use BUT to combining two different sentences
EXAMPLE :
- My father buys a shirt. My mother doesn’t buy a shirt
- My father buys a shirt but my mother doesn’t
Note :
- Untuk penggunaan so, too, either, dan neither gunakan kata hubung “AND”
