also ³

虽说 also 的通常位置是实义动词之前、助动词之后,但不能说 also 绝对不能用于句末（尤其是在美国英语中）。请看下面的实例：

1. I must buy some bread also. 我还必须买些面包。

2. They know him and I know him also. 他们认识他,我也认识他。

3. The son had gone also. 儿子也走了。

4. Because could be used in the above sentences also, though for is better. because 也可以用在上面的各句里,但是,用 for 则更好。

5. I also saw his elder brother. ~I saw his elder brother also. 我也见到了他哥哥。also $^{4}$

also/too/as well

also, too 和 as well 的词义基本相同。但它们的用法有些区别。主要的区别，就是它们在句中的位置不同。also 的通常位置是在实义动词前、助动词和连系动词之后。但是有时候，也放在句首。在美国英语中还可放在句末。

1. She sings, and also paints sometimes. 她唱歌,有时也[还]画画。

2. John is also coming to the party. (CGELD) 约翰也来参加聚会。

3. I have also spoken to Jane. (CLD) 我和简也说过话了。

4. I was also there. (LDCE) 我也在那里。

5. I'm cold, and I'm also hungry and tired. (CIDE) 我很冷，又饿又累。

also 用在句首的例句见 also $^{2}$ ，用在句末的例句见 also $^{3}$ 。

关于 as well 和 too 的用法分别见 as well, too。
