1.属正式用词,主要用于肯定句或疑问句,一般不用于否定句 (否定句可用 either),它在句中通常放在实义动词之前,特殊动词 (动词be、情态动词、助动词)之后,有时也放在整个谓语前面或放在句首或句尾 (较少见,且多半是因为强调之故).如：I’ve also read the book.我也读过这本书.This room was also dirty.This room alsowas dirty.This room was dirty also.
Also this room wasdirty.这个房间也很脏.
2.有时由于 also 位置不同,可能会导致句子含义不同.如：We alsoregard him as a great writer today.我们也 (同别人一样)把他看成当今伟大的作家.We regard also him as a great writertoday.我们把他 (We regard also him as a great writertoday.也看成当今伟大的作家.
We regardhim as a great writer also today.我们仍 (同其它时候一样)把他看成当今伟大的作家.
3.在简略答语中,习惯上不用3.also,如一般不说 I also,但可说Metoo,You too等之类的.如：A：I’m tired.我累了.B：Me too.我也是.
B：I also.(误)
