AFFIRMATIVE AGREEMENT AND NEGATIVE AGREEMENT

.     

              Affirmative Agreement

Untuk menghilangkan pengulangan kata pada suatu kalimat kita bisa menggunakan kata “so”atau “too”.  Ada perbedaan pada susunan kalimatnya ketika menggunaan kata “so” dan “too”.

Silahkan perhatikan rumus berikut:

Ketika hanya ada “to be” pada klausa utama (main clause), maka tenses yang sama dari “to be” digunakan pada klausa kedua (second clause).
Contohnya:

ü  Affirmative statement (be) + and + [ S + verb (be) + too]
Example: I am happy and you are too.

ü  Affirmative statement (be) + and + [ so + verb (be) + S ]
Example: I am happy and so are you.

Contoh kalimat lainnya:

1)      Their plane is arriving at 7 o’clock, and so is mine.

2)      I am sick, and He is too.

3)      Our class is clean, and so are theirs.

4)      Bella is beautiful, and her sister is too.

5)      My hand writing is bad, and so are you.

Ketika hanya ada kata kerja bantu (auxiliary verb), contohnya: will, should, has, have, must, etc pada klausa utama (main clause), kata kerja bantu nya (auxiliary verb) juga digunakan pada klausa kedua (second clause).
Contohnya:
1.     He has seen her plays = He has seen her plays, and the girls have too.
2.    The girls have seen her plays = He has seen her plays, and so have the girls.

Affirmative statement + and +                              Subject + auxiliary verb only + too
       (auxiliary verb)                                                So + auxiliary verb only + subject

Contoh kalimat lainnya:

1)      They will go at noon, and she will too.

2)      He has an early appointment, and so have I.

3)       They have written their lyrics, and so have we.

4)      Richard has lived in Cuba for five years, and they have too.

5)      I should finish the report, and she should too.

Ketika hanya ada kata kerja (verb) tanpa auxiliary verb pada klausa utama (main clause), kata kerja bantu do, does, atau did digunakan pada klausa kedua (second clause) dan tenses nya harus sama.
Contohnya:

1)      We go to school = We go to school, and my brother does too.

2)      My brother goes to school = We go to school, and so does my brother.

Affirmative statement + and +                              Subject + (do, does, did) + too
(single verb except ”to be”)                                    So + (do, does, did) + subject

Contoh kalimat lainnya:

1)      We want to buy a fountain, and she does too.

2)      My mother likes traveling, and so do their mother.

3)      My brother invites him to the party, and my sister does too.

4)      They wrote a good poem, and so did he.

5)      Fred cooked fried rice for his breakfast, and Tina did too.

2.       Negative Agreement

“Either” dan “neither” memiliki fungsi yang sama seperti kata “too” dan “so” pada klausa kedua (second clause) dalam kalimat positif (affirmative sentence/ agreement). Kata “Either”dan “neither” ini digunakan untuk mengindikasikan kalimat negative (negative sentence/ agreement). Aturan yang sama juga berlaku untuk penggunaan “to be”, “auxiliary verb” (kata kerja bantu), dan “verb” (kata kerja).
Contohnya:
1.  I didn’t go to the mosque yesterday, and Ali didn’t either.
2.  I didn’t go to the mosque yesterday, and neither did Ali.

Negative statement + and +                   Subject + negative auxiliary or “to be” + either
                                                                Neither + positive auxiliary or “to be” + subject

Contoh kalimat lainnya:
1.    The manager isn’t too happy with the project, and neither is his assistant.
2.    We can’t study in the library, and he can’t either.
3.    You didn’t pay the taxes, and they didn’t either.
4.    My brother won’t accept my father’s decision, and my sister won’t either.
5.    He doesn’t know the answer, and neither does she.
