The words have similar meanings, but very specific uses.For example, if your friend says, I dont like sushi, if you want to agree with this statement do you say, Me neither, Me either, or Me too?Watch the video below to learn more about using either, neither and too, and then see if you can complete the exercises.

Can you see what the correct answer should be? Adolfo 4. Kevin:  â€She loves New York City.” Freddy:  â€ _____, it’s a beautiful city.” a. Me too b. Me either Could letter b be possible? LOIEnglish AdolfoWe use me too to agree with positive sentences.   For example:   Person A. I like ice-cream. Person B.  Me too.We use me neither to agree with negative sentences.   For Example:   Person A. I dont like traffic. Person B. Me neither.*Note* We use me NEITHER   me either is incorrect. Many native speakers make this mistake but technically it is incorrect. We use Either when not is in the sentence.   For example:   I dont like traffic.   I dont either.   Notice that  not + either=neither.   Adolfo So, Me either doesnt exist, right? Even in positive sentences?
