Adding Agreement and Enthusiasm with “So” and “Too”

Imagine your friend says:

“I love chocolate.”

You want to say you also love chocolate, but instead of repeating “Me too!” every time, wouldn’t it be nice to have different, more natural ways?

This is where “so” and “too” help you shine!
They make your English sound friendly, fluent, and natural — and help you quickly show you share the same idea, especially in positive sentences.

Let’s discover how to use them properly, so you can speak confidently and sound more like a native speaker! 🌟

✏️ Detailed Explanation: How to Use “So” and “Too”

Both “so” and “too” are used to show agreement or add information when you feel the same way as someone else — but they are used in slightly different structures.

1️⃣ “Too”

Meaning: also, as well

  • Usually comes at the end of the sentence

  • Used after positive sentences

Examples:

  • I love pizza.I love pizza too!

  • She is coming to the party.I am too!

2️⃣ “So”

Meaning: also, in the same way

  • Comes at the beginning of the sentence

  • Followed by an auxiliary verb + subject

Examples:

  • I love pizza.So do I!

  • She is coming to the party.So am I!

📝 Structures:

To agree with...

I like swimming.

She is happy.

They went there.

Use “So”

So do I.

So is he.

So did we.

Use “Too”

I do too.

Important points:

✔ Use “so” + auxiliary verb + subject
✔ Use “too” at the end with subject + auxiliary verb
✔ Both are used for positive sentences
✔ For negative sentences, we use neither and either (as you learned before!)

🌟 Examples in conversation:
