2 also
['ɔːlsəʊ]1) (too, as well) anche, pure2) (furthermore) inoltre, oltre a ciò••also, he snores — come se non bastasse, russa
Note:Although also is a bit more formal than too and as well, there is no corresponding difference in Italian, and anche (less commonly, pure) can translate the three of them; as to its position in the sentence, anche usually precedes the form it refers to, as the following examples will show: Linda also met Andrew last night (emphasis on Linda) = anche Linda ha incontrato Andrew ieri sera; Linda also met Andrew last night (emphasis on met) = Linda ha anche incontrato Andrew ieri sera; Linda also met Andrew last night (emphasis on Andrew) = Linda ha incontrato anche Andrew ieri sera; Linda also met Andrew last night (emphasis on last night) = Linda ha incontrato Andrew anche ieri sera* * *['o:lsəu](in addition or besides; too: He is studying German but he is also studying French; They know him and I know him also.) anche* * *['ɔːlsəʊ]1) (too, as well) anche, pure2) (furthermore) inoltre, oltre a ciò••also, he snores — come se non bastasse, russa

3 -also / too-
Nota d'usoAlso si pone prima del verbo, tranne nel caso di to be e dei verbi modali: He also speaks German, parla anche il tedesco; Did you also visit Dublin?, avete visitato anche Dublino?; Not only is he incompetent, he is also self-important, non soltanto è incompetente, ma anche presuntuoso.Too e as well (quest'ultimo non molto comune nell'inglese americano) sono più colloquiali di also e vengono generalmente posti alla fine della frase: He speaks German as well; Did you visit Dublin too?; Not only is he incompetent, he is self-important too. Too e as well sono molto più frequenti di also con gli imperativi e nelle risposte brevi: Help us as well!, aiutate anche noi!; «I am tired of his lies» «So am I (o più formale I am too, informale Me too)», «sono stufo delle sue bugie» «anch'io».Le frasi contenenti too e as well possono risultare ambigue: ad esempio, I like climbing too può voler dire 1) anche a me piace arrampicare oppure 2) mi piace anche arrampicare. In molti casi il contesto del discorso e, nel parlato, l'accento e l'intonazione sono sufficienti a eliminare l'ambiguità; tuttavia, se l'interpretazione corretta è la 1), nella lingua formale è possibile spostare too (ma non as well) subito dopo il soggetto: I, too, like climbing, anche a me piace arrampicare. -
