Vocabulary

me too

If anyone says: " I don't like beer", can another person answer: " Me too".
And "also, as well and too"can I use them only in affermative sentences?
Please correct me if I made any mistake in my question.

In casual spoken English, natives occasionally answer a negative statement with ' me too ', but normally the response is ' me either' or 'me neither'. Or ' neither do I'. Also and as well are more strongly restricted to affirmative statements.

I've read on another thread that "me neither"and "me either" are not grammatically correct.
Is this true?

Hi,

I've read on another thread that "me neither"and "me either" are not grammatically correct.

I assume the objection would be that the phrase should be 'I, neither'. This certainly is not wrong, but it's very formal. 'Me, too' seems to me to be common enough and clear enough to be acceptable as an idiomatic expression.

I 'd encourage the us
