How can we express agreement or disagreement when the statements involve multiple subjects or ideas?
Free Answer
Example + Explaination:
Let's say one person says, "I love hiking and swimming," and another person says, "I enjoy hiking, but I don't like swimming." In this case, we can express agreement by saying: "I love hiking too, and I also don't enjoy swimming."
We use "so" to agree with the shared interest in hiking, and "neither" to agree with the dislike for swimming.
On the other hand, we can express disagreement by saying, "I love hiking, but I actually really enjoy swimming." Here, we use "but" to introduce the contrasting idea that the speaker does enjoy swimming despite their love for hiking.
