ADDITIONS
ADDITIONS
• Additions are phrases or short sentences that
  follow an statement. Use an addition to avoid
  repeating the information in the statement.

     Mary is in London, and so is Jenny.
  (Mary is in London, and Jenny is in London)
• Additions always use a form or be or an
  auxiliary verb (be, have, will, do) or a modal
  verb such as can, should, would.

• The verb tense in the addition must match the
  verb tense in the first sentence.
• Use so or too if the addition follows an
  affirmative statement.



       Mary is in London, and so is Jenny.
                      OR
       Mary is London, and Jenny is too.
• Use neither or not either if the addition follows
  a negative statement.

         Favio didn’t go to the movies. Neither did I
                             OR
        Favio didn’t go to the movies. I didn´t either.

        Sandra never drinks coffee. Neither does Ken.
                            OR
       Sandra never drinks coffee. Ken doesn´t either.
•   In conversations you can use short responses
    with so, too, neither and not either to agree
    with another person.

A: I went waterskiing    A: I’ve never been sailing
on my vacation.          before.
B: So did I.             B:Neither have I
C: I did too.            C: I haven’t either.
