Affirmative and Negative Agreement



Nama : Meiriza Alviyany // NPM : 16214550 // Kelas : 1EA10

Affirmative and Negative Agreement
When people speak together, they often agree or disagree about things. We can use simple forms to express our agreement or disagreement. Affirmative & Negative Agreement is used when we are going to answer someone’s statement. Affirmative & Negative Agreement is the ways to shorten our reply, we don’t have to repeat all the sentences.

Affirmative Agreement
We can use the word “so” and “too”
1. So ( So + Auxiliary + Subject + Verb )
2. Too ( Subject + Auxiliary Verb + too )
When we use “so” and “too” is that “so” is placed in the front of the sentence. But “too” is placed in the end of the sentence.

For example :
Alan    : I ‘am feeling happy
Difa     : I ‘am feeling happy too
Citra    : Me too
Firman : So do I
Eto      : I am too

Negative Agreement
We can use the word “neither” and “either”
1. Neither ( Neither + Auxiliary Verb Positive + Subject)
2. Either ( Subject + Auxiliary Verb Negative + Either )
When we use  “neither” and “either” is that “neither” is placed in the front of the sentence. But “either” is placed in the end of the sentence. Beside that, if we use “neither” the verb must be positive and for “either” the verb must negative.

For example :
Vega    : I never feeling sad
Hary    : Neither do I
Andrie : I don’t either.
