The document explains the use of 'so' for agreement with positive statements and 'neither' for negative statements, including their correct grammatical structures. It also describes question tags, emphasizing the need to adjust the tag based on the main statement's positivity or negativity. Examples illustrate the rules for these grammatical concepts.

1. Talk about memorable
events

9. 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 I
I went to the cinema yesteday -> so did I

11. 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.

15. 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?

18.  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
