ADDITIONS TO REMARKS
BUCKINGHAM FOUNTAIN
She once told me she loved me,
And time proved it was a lie.
She once told me she would leave.
And so did I.
ADDITIONS TO REMARKS
Construção gramatical que evita a repetição
de toda uma oração. Assim, ao invés de
dizermos: Bob ate an apple and Jane ate an
apple too.
Podemos dizer:
Bob ate an apple and so did Jane.
(Bob comeu uma maçã e Jane também.)
AFFIRMATIVE ADDITIONS
FORMAÇÃO:
SO + VERBO AUXILIAR + SUJEITO
Charles studies hard and so does his brother.
studies = simple present
does = verbo aux. do "simple present" (3ª p.do sing.)
brother = sujeito (3ª pessoa do sing.)
(Charles estuda bastante e seu irmão também.)
Charles studies hard and so do his sisters.
studies = simple present
do = verbo aux. do "simple present" (3ª p.do pl.)
his sisters = sujeito (3ª p. do plural)
(Charles estuda bastante e suas irmãs também.)
Tom can speak English fluently and so can Jim.
can speak: can = verbo aux.
so can: can = verbo aux.
(Tom pode falar inglês fluentemente e Jim também.)
Observe que o verbo auxiliar deve concordar com seu
respectivo sujeito e, ao mesmo tempo, deve
corresponder ao tempo verbal da oração anterior.
I have done it and you have done it too.
I have done it and so have you.
(Eu tenho feito isso e você também.)
Observe, ainda, que em "ADDITIONS TO REMARKS"
há uma inversão - o verbo auxiliar é colocado antes
do sujeito.
