•

USAGE:

(1). Also 1. связывает две части предложения или два самостоятельных предложения выражая солидарность с первым утверждением. Обычно also 1. стоит перед смысловым глаголом и не может стоять в конце предложения. В конце предложения это значение передается английскими too и as well as: The boy also reads very much. Cp. The boy reads very much too. I was so busy that I missed lunch and dinner as well. Я был так занят, что пропустил ленч, а так же и обед. (2). Also 1. употребляется в полных утвердительных и вопросительных предложениях. В полных отрицательных предложениях это значение присоединения передается словом either: He doesn't know it either. Он тоже этого не знает. Don't you know his name either? Вы разве тоже не знаете как его зовут? (3). Русское "тоже" в кратких ответах, выражающих солидарность с положительным утверждением передается оборотом so + do (does, is, can... etc) I (we, etc): He went to bed early - So did I. Русское "тоже" в кратких ответах, выражающих солидарность с отрицательным утверждением, соответствует обороту с neither + do (does, is, etc) I (he, etc): He doesn't like such films. - Neither does she. Ему не нравятся такие фильмы. - Ей тоже. He has never been to the North. - Neither have I. Он никогда не был на севере. - Я тоже. (4). Also 2. в отличие от also 1., обычно стоит в начале или конце предложения и, как правило, не только связывает два утверждения, но вводит дополнительную, иногда неожиданную, информацию: This article is easier and shorter also. Эта статья легче и к тому же короче. No, I won't slay for a drink. I'm driving. Also, I have to get up early tomorrow. Нет, я пить не буду. Я на машине. К тому же, мне завтра рано вставать. Think carefully about whether you really want that job. Also, are you able to move house if you do get it. Подумай хорошенько, хочешь ли ты получить эту работу. И к тому же, ты можешь сюда перебраться (переехать) если ты ее получишь
