How to use ТОЖЕ and ТАКЖЕ – From Zero to Fluency — Lesson 23

Hello, dear friends, how are you? So, here we go. look at these two images, top and bottom, and try to guess. Remember, keep in mind also 2 at the same time. So, I'll give you two to three seconds. 1001, 1002, 1003. We have a character, his name is Boris, he drinks coffee. Boris is alone. He has water, wine, milk, juice, coffee. One Boris, a lot of drinks. What are we talking about here? And, not only coffee, but also water, wine, juice, milk. In this case, when there's one character and many things, we use the same. Don't forget, we changed the end of water-water, because it's an accusative case. If you forget, go and check the battery. He drinks water. Let's take another example. Darya is a professor. I'm a professor. I know. I'm also on YouTube. Darya Una, a professor, a YouTuber, and a teacher. I'm also a YouTuber. Let's say... I'm a professor and... I haven't prepared properly. Oh, there is... Or my favorite villain. In his golden armor. In gold armor. From Aquaman, if you don't know. So, Orm... Let's say he's a professor too, so we can use an example. I'm a professor and a... Professor too. So this is when it happens. I'm with you. Look at the second picture. We have the same Boris. I just flipped him in another direction. So he's not quite the same. So, Boris, what's up? And he's still drinking. Boris is drinking. And I even cut all the drinks. Just drinking. He drinks. Maybe he's an alcoholic. Actually it sounds... You would say, Boris is drinking. That sounds like he's an alcoholic. Usually this is the meaning. But for the example it would work. So, Boris is drinking. And now we have some Tom. Tom. So there are two people. Boris and Tom. But the action is the same. See, he drinks. Tom drinks too. I need a drink. I should drink. Darya does not drink. It's a shame. Two people doing the same thing. Or like Orm and I. having the same profession. Orm professor I don't know. Let's say ecology. Professor of ecology. I'm too. I'm going to the doctor. So, two people doing the same thing. Or being the same thing. Or anything. That's the same. We use it too. One person Doing multiple things or being Multiple things or anything else A lot of stuff. I hope you got it. And I thought it would be a really cool idea to jump on reddit and Instead of me mumbling around The theory, just put it about In words that students actually use among themselves. Isn't that amazing? I wonder if someone is doing it. If not, I'll be happy to... It's just amazing. So, easier to understand for you, rather than me So let's read what they say. Eight years ago. So, hi, I still make mistakes with this, but this When you're referring to to two things and actions that are the same, Use it too. Here it is like a dialogue. Except for someone. I made a typo here. I know. It's not a word. Imagine it being a dialogue between two people. I'm learning Russian. I too I'm going to learn Russian. Two people are talking. I'm going to study. Russian language. Oh, my God, I'm here too. So you feel this The situation. Two people, Daria one. and Daria 2 doing the same thing. Learning the Russian language. Number two. When you're referring to an additional thing or action, You use the same. I'm also learning. French language. So, same person doing Two things, learning two We would use different languages. - I'm not going to. That's a random... Joshua... That's an interesting nickname. So, if the subject changes, If the object changes, use So I don't know. which of the explanations will click in your head. That's why I decided to put those Reddit comments here, because who knows Everyone is different, and different explanations suddenly... And you are enlightened and understand everything. Okay, Dina, let's see what I can do. Dina is saying. It's more like ALSO. But also is more directly translated as in the same way. You wouldn't use the latter. to say you also love music. But you would use it Instead if you were saying You play music. In the same way. So you get this kind of What's the difference? Okay, and this young man. That's good. It's a Russian word. So, as mentioned, TOTY adds to the list of subjects completing the same action. While you're at it. adds to the list I'm going to give you some examples. I love football. Pavel also loves football. I like soccer. or football. Paul likes football too. I do it, and Paul does it. Second example. I also love basketball. So now It's just me, and I like football, and also I like basketball. I hope so. Cleared your mind a little bit And you understand Now let's get to the point. If you are to Watching this later, when it is not already live, You can pause the screen and try to write it down yourself. Try to find the correct version. Like this or like that. Right now I'm just going to show the correct answers, and we're gonna Go through the explanations. of what's going on. So, here we go. Screenshot from the video. Do it. Move on, you know. My father's math. What do we see? My dad, one person. I did. I'm going to be a mathematician. So we instantly understand. I'm sorry. I was just... I need water. Two people. Same profession. My dad is a mathematician. And so am I. I'm not going to lie. I'm also a mathematician. And it can be anything. My dad's business. I'm also a businessman. This cat fur is not leaving me. My father's doctor. I'm also a doctor. Maybe some family tradition. - I'm good. I'm going to study math. I study math. So we see I. The same person. I'm a math teacher. I also study history. So you can get rid of this whole phrase. And you can just replace it with И. I study math and history. This is when you'll use the TAKJE. Because it's the same person studying several things. And the next one is our favorite character. Vladimir the cat. If you haven't forgotten him. The Lord is a man. Vladimir is a cat. - What's going on? He's a cat too. Silver is also a stone. His fur is in my nose. He's walking around somewhere there. Silver is also hot. So here it might be a little confusing, But in fact the situation is the same. What's going on? - What's going on? Speaking of Silver, give me a second. Speaking of Silver, He just wants to create a disturbance in the Force, as they say. Here's the villain of the house. It's Silver, since we're talking about him in the example. So Vladimir, our fictional character, It's the end. And silver is also a thing. So it's just like being a mathematician. Just imagine that KOT is a profession. Silver, are you here? So we would use TOE, Because technically we have two cats, Vladimir and Silver. Vladimir is dead, Silver is dead too. Vladimir is dead. But also remember, he has a profession. He's not a lazy cat like someone here. Vladimir Kosmonov, you are a good man. He is an astronaut. This cat has no profession, Except for being cute and throwing his fur all over the place. Vladimir is also a cosmonaut. So Vladimir is one, two professions. I'm not going to tell you. So now we have one cat, two professions. and CAT Cosmonaut. The gift. I'm not going to lie. The author of Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit. She likes Tolkien. But she also likes Poe. Not Poe from Star Wars. But he's kind of cool too. But it's the writer. Edgar Allan Poe. I know. The one who writes amazing short stories. Which is kind of not true. I don't like scary stories. I just needed the shortest name to squeeze it into the screen. I like Dostoevsky. But it's just such a long name. I love my friend. Anyway, it is one person, Darya. We just replaced it. So we don't repeat it again and again. I just replaced it with ONA. And she also likes this and that. She also loves you. Give it to me. I'm not a car owner. One Darya, two authors she likes. And the last example. Give love to the Russian language. Darya loves the Russian language. The students. Students also love the Russian language. I hope you do. Tell me in the comments, please. If you do, I need your moral support now. So I'll be happy if you still like Russian. Students also love Russian language. So we have one thing the Russian language. But not two, technically it's more people. So Darya and someone else are students. Darya and students like the same thing. Darya loves, students also love. So I hope this is clear. It would be really good for you to pause this again or take a screenshot and work with your own examples. This is crucial, you must work on your own too. Just replace everything you can. My father. Let's say my mom. Instead of MATEMATIK I'm going to say Borista. Or my brother. My brother. I'm going to fight. He makes coffee. My sister also fought. I will study. Replace my friend studies. My friend is a student. That way you'll be able to review the endings of the verbs too. MATEMATIKU is replaced by LITERATURU, Music, anything.
