Too or as well ???
Could you a little explain on this ?
Q) Not only you but I am liable for that fault ........
a) as well b) too
The correct answer is a) as well.
I learned "too" is located in the last part of a sentence. Can't I use it there ? Why ? Because "Not only phase" indicates plural, we can't use too ( I think I have seen "too" refers to only one person like a common answer that " me,too")
Thank you for your kind answer.

"Too" is an adverb. When used at the end of the sentence it means "as well". So I don't understand why the answer is limited to the "as well" only.
- "Too" is an adverb.

- Plurality or singularity has nothing to do with the usage of "too" here.
- Equally, one can say: Not only they but we are liable for that fault ..
