Complete the sentences with 'me too', 'so have I', 'neither do I', and 'me neither'. Did you notice I used both pronunciations there? Use each phrase once!
用“me too”、“so have I”、“neither do I”和“me neither”完成句子。你注意到我在那里使用了两种发音吗?每个短语都使用一次!
The short phrases express the idea that something is also true for someone else.
短语表达了这样的想法:某事对其他人来说也是如此。
You're telling the speaker that you agree with what they have said and have had the same experience or feelings. It's like saying—'I also'. Ready?
你告诉演讲者你同意他们所说的话,并且有过同样的经历或感受。这就像说——“I also”。准备好了吗?
Here are your 4 sentences: 'I've been to Rome.' 'I don't like black coffee.' 'I hate flying.' 'I haven't been to Paris.' Which phrase can go with which sentence?
这是你的4句话:“I've been to Rome.”“I don't like black coffee.”“I hate flying.”“I haven't been to Paris.”哪个短语可以与哪个句子搭配?
Pause the video to think. Here are the answers. How did you do? Let's go through why we used each of those phrases, starting with number 1—'I've been to Rome, so have I.'
暂停视频思考。以下是答案。你做得怎么样?让我们来看看为什么我们使用了每个短语,从第一个开始——“I've been to Rome, so have I.”
Using 'so have I' is more natural than saying—'I've been to Rome. I've also been to Rome.'
使用“so have I”比说“I've been to Rome. I've also been to Rome.”更自然。
In positive sentences, we can use this structure: so + auxiliary + pronoun to express the idea of 'also'. In our example sentence, 'have' is the auxiliary verb.
在肯定句中,我们可以使用这种结构:so+助动词+代词来表达“also”的意思。在我们的例句中,“have”是助动词。
'I have been, so have I.' If I say this phrase slowly, I pronounce it—'So have I.' But in fast speech, many speakers drop the sound the /h/ in 'have'.
“I have been, so have I.”如果我慢慢地说这个短语,我会把它读成“So have I.”但在快速说话时,许多说话者会省略“have”中的/h/音。
So, you might hear something more similar to 'so (h)ave I,' 'so (h)ave I.' Noticed the linking word sound there, and the weak form of the auxiliary verb 'have,' 'so (h)ave I'.
您可能会听到更类似于“so (h)ave I”的声音。注意那里的连接词音,以及助动词“have”的弱形式“so (h)ave I”。
Here are some more examples—'I was delighted to hear Jolene got into university. So were we.' Again, notice how I use the weak form of the verb here.
这里还有一些例子:I was delighted to hear Jolene got into university. So were we.再次注意我在这里是如何使用动词的弱形式的。
'So /w?/ we,' 'So /w?/ we.' In this example, the main verb is 'be'. We can use 'be' instead of an auxiliary verb in our short answer.
‘So /w?/ we’。在这个例子中,主动词是‘be’。我们可以在简短回答中使用‘be’代替助动词。
The same is true if 'have' is the main verb. You can see an example of that in the PDF. The link is in the description box.
如果‘have’是主动词,情况也是如此。您可以在PDF中看到一个示例。链接在描述框中。
Another example—'My daughter goes running most mornings. So does my son!' In the first statement, there was no auxiliary verb.
另一个例子——‘My daughter goes running most mornings. So does my son!’在第一个陈述中,没有助动词。
The sentence is in the present simple. So, we use a form of 'do' in the short answer. 'I should really go to bed earlier. So _.' What do you think? It's—'So should I?'
这个句子是一般现在时。我们在简短回答中使用‘do’的形式。‘I should really go to bed earlier. So _.’你怎么看?答案是So should I?
Here's the next example: 'Frankie could swim when she was only 2! So could my sister!' 'My mum loves gardening.'
这是下一个例子:‘Frankie could swim when she was only 2! So could my sister!’‘My mum loves gardening.’
How can you answer to agree that 'my mum also loves gardening'? It would be—'So does mine.'
你会如何回答以表示同意“my mum also loves gardening”?答案应该是“So does mine”。
We want to agree with the subject 'my mum', which contains the possessive adjective 'my'.
我们要同意主语“my mum”,它包含所有格形容词“我的”。
So, we use the possessive pronoun 'mine' rather than a subject pronoun. All right, let's go back to our first sentence about Rome.
我们使用所有格代词“mine”而不是主语代词。让我们回到关于罗马的第一句话。
What if it had been in the negative form? 'I haven't been to Rome.' You can't say—'So have I' or 'So haven't I.' What would you say instead to express agreement?
如果它是否定形式会怎样?“I haven't been to Rome.”你不能说——“So have I”或“So haven't I”。你会说什么来表达同意?
You would say—'Neither have I.' Again, many speakers will drop the or /h/ or 'h' sound here. 'Neither (h)ave I.'
你会说“Neither have I”。同样,许多说话者会在这里省略或/h/或“h”的音。“Neither (h)ave I.”
I can also use a linking 'r' sound to glide between the 2 vowel sounds more easily. 'Neither (h)ave I.' And that brings us to the second statement in our quiz.
我也可以使用连音“r”来更轻松地在两个元音之间滑动。“Neither (h)ave I.”这就引出了我们测验中的第二句话。
'I don't like black coffee.' The answer—'Neither do I.' When the main verb is negative, we use neither + the auxiliary verb + the pronoun.
“I don't like black coffee.”答案是“Neither do I”。当主动词为否定时,我们使用neither+助动词+代词。
We don't say—'Neither don't I.' That would be a double negative, and they aren't usually used in English. It's just—'Neither do I.'
我们不会说“Neither don't I”,那将是双重否定,而且它们通常不会在英语中使用。我们只会说“Neither do I”。
But before we go any further, I bet you're wondering about the pronunciation. Let's talk about it now. You can pronounce this word /?na???/ or /?ni???/.
但在继续之前,我敢打赌你一定想知道它的发音。现在让我们来谈谈它。你可以将这个词发音为/?na???/或/?ni???/。
Both are correct. Use whichever pronunciation you feel more comfortable with. And to be totally honest, I use both.
两者都是正确的。使用你觉得更舒服的发音。说实话,我两者都用。
I switch between the 2, and I can't give you a rule about why I do that, or when I use each pronunciation.
我在两者之间切换,我无法给你一个规则来说明我为什么这样做,或者我何时使用每个发音。
Sometimes I say /?ni???/ and sometimes I say /?na???/. Pick the one that you like. Okay, let's see some more examples with /?na???/ or /?ni???/.
有时我会说/?ni???/,有时我会说/?na???/。选一个你喜欢的。好的,让我们看一些带有/?na???/或/?ni???/的例子。
Now: 'I won't be at the meeting tomorrow. Neither will I.' 'I didn't like the film. Neither did I.' 'We can't wait for Christmas. Neither can we!'
现在:“I won't be at the meeting tomorrow. Neither will I.”“I didn't like the film. Neither did I.”“We can't wait for Christmas. Neither can we!”
I used /k?n/ instead of 'can' here. 'Neither can we'. 'Their kids almost never eat vegetables. Neither do ours!'
我在这里用/k?n/代替了“can”。“Neither can we.”“Their kids almost never eat vegetables. Neither do ours!”
You saw the possessive adjective 'their,' so we answered with the possessive pronoun 'ours' or 'ours'. You'll find a lot of English speakers saying 'ours' in fast speech.
您看到了所有格形容词“their”,所以我们用所有格代词“ours”来回答。您会发现很多英语使用者在快速讲话时会说“ours”。
All right, let's move on to talk about statement 3 from our quiz earlier in the video: 'I hate flying,' and the answer—'Me too.'
让我们继续讨论视频中早些时候测验中的陈述3:“I hate flying”,答案是“Me too”。
So, 'me too' is an informal way to say 'I also hate flying'. Here are some more examples: 'I really wanted to go to New Zealand. Me too.'
“me too”是一种非正式的说法,表示“I also hate flying”。这里还有一些例子:“I really wanted to go to New Zealand. Me too.”
'I was nervous before the exam. Me too.' Now, we don't usually use other pronouns in short answers like this. For example—'Us too' or 'him too'.
“I was nervous before the exam. Me too.”现在,我们通常不会在这样的简短回答中使用其他代词。例如——“Us too”或“him too”。
You will hear people use them, but they aren't really common. Remember, we can also use so + auxiliary + subject to agree with a positive statement.
您会听到人们使用它们,但它们并不常见。请记住,我们也可以使用so+助动词+主语来同意肯定的陈述。
Let's look at those 3 phrases again. Can you respond to them using 'so'? Pause to have a think. Are you ready for the answers?
让我们再看看这3个短语。你能用“so”来回答他们吗?停下来想一想。你准备好回答了吗?
Great, use 'do' to agree with statements in the present simple and 'did' in the past simple. In the third sentence, we just repeat the main verb 'to be'—simple.
太好了,用“do”来同意一般现在时的陈述,用“did”来同意一般过去时的陈述。在第三句中,我们只是重复了主动词“to be”——简单。
And now it's time to look at statement 4: 'I haven't been to Paris. Me neither.' So, 'me neither' is the negative version of 'me too'.
现在是时候看看第四句了:“I haven't been to Paris. Me neither.”“me neither”是“me too”的否定形式。
We use it to agree with negative statements. 'Me neither' and 'me too' are much easier, right? We don't have to think about the correct verb to use.
我们用它来同意否定陈述。“Me neither”和“me too”简单得多,对吧?我们不必考虑要使用正确的动词。
Here are some more examples with 'Me neither': 'I'm not going on holiday this year. Me neither.' 'I didn't like reading when I was younger. Me neither.'
以下是一些使用“Me neither”的例子:“I'm not going on holiday this year. Me neither.”“I didn't like reading when I was younger. Me neither.”
Remember, we can also use the structure neither + auxiliary + pronoun to agree with negative statements. 'Neither am I', 'neither did I'.
记住,我们也可以使用neither+助动词+代词的结构来同意否定陈述。“Neither am I”,“neither did I”。
You might have heard people say—'me either' rather than 'me neither'.
你可能听过人们说“me either”而不是“me both”。
It's more common in American English than in British English, and it is considered grammatically incorrect by some people.
它在美式英语中比在英式英语中更常见,有些人认为它在语法上是错误的。
It's often better to say 'me neither', unless you're in a very informal situation with other people who prefer 'me either'.
通常最好说“me both”,除非你处于非常非正式的场合,而其他人更喜欢“me either”。
Now that I've mentioned 'either', I think it's time to talk about how we usually use that word. Try to complete these sentences: 'I love the smell of fresh bread. I do _.'
既然我已经提到了“either”,我想是时候谈谈通常如何使用这个词了。试着完成这些句子:“I love the smell of fresh bread. I do _.”
And—'I don't like spicy food. I don't _.' Here are the answers: 'I do too,' and 'I don't either'. So, after a positive statement, we can use subject + auxiliary verb + 'too'.
“I don't like spicy food. I don't _.”答案如下:“I do too”和“I don't either”。在肯定句之后,我们可以使用主语+助动词+“too”。
And after a negative statement, we can add the same form with 'either'. The auxiliary verb should be negative when it's followed by 'either'.
在否定句之后,我们可以用“either”添加相同的形式。助动词后面跟“either”时应为否定。
A note that just like with 'neither' and 'neither', we can pronounce it 'either' or 'either'. These structures are more formal than 'me too' and 'me neither'.
请注意,就像“neither”和“neither”一样,我们可以将其发音为“either”或“either”。这些结构比“me too”和“me both”更正式。
Here are some more examples: 'I'm learning French at the moment. I am too!' 'Ruth's husband can't cook very well. Ruth can't either!'
这里还有一些例子:“I'm learning French at the moment. I am too!”“Ruth's husband can't cook very well. Ruth can't either!”
'We'll help if you need us to. Yeah, we will too.' And I've put even more examples in the PDF. Okay, finally, let's see all of the structures together.
“We'll help if you need us to. Yeah, we will too.”我在PDF中放了更多的例子。好的,最后,让我们一起看看所有的结构。
What are the 3 short answers you could use to agree with each statement? 'I can speak Spanish.' 'I can't speak Japanese.' Pause the video to think. Are you ready?
你可以用哪3个简短的答案来同意每个陈述?“I can speak Spanish.”“I can't speak Japanese.” 暂停视频思考。你准备好了吗?
Let's start with—'I can speak Spanish.' We have 'So can I', 'Me too,' or 'I can too'. And with 'I can't speak Japanese'—'Neither can I,' 'Me neither,' 'I can't either'.
让我们从“I can speak Spanish.”开始。我们有“So can I”、“Me too”或“I can too”。而对于“I can't speak Japanese”——“Neither can I”、“Me neither”、“I can't either”。
How did you do? We're at the end of the lesson now, and it's your turn.
