Auxiliary verbs in short answers, short questions (So am I / Neither am I/ I think so/ I hope so etc/

a)Can you swim? I have lost my key.   He might not come.

In these sentences can, have, might are (helping verbs). We often use auxiliary verbs when we don`t want to repeat something.

We use do, did, does for present and past simple short answers.

b)We use auxiliary verbs in short answers:

- It rained every day during our holiday. Did it?

- Ann isn`t very well today, is she?

c) We also use auxiliary verbs with so and neither:

- I`m feeling tired, so am I.

- I never read newspaper, neither do I.

d) I think so/ hope so

We use so in this way after a number of verbs, especially think, hope, expect,suppose and I`m afraid:

• Is she English? I think so.
• Will Tom come? I expect so.
• Has Ann been invited to the party? I suppose so.

e) The negative form depends on the verb:

I think so/ I expect so – I don`t think so/ I don`t expect so

I hope so/ I`m afraid so – i hope note/ I`m afraid not

I suppose so – I don`t suppose so or  I suppose not
