Grammar · Particles

도, also

Pattern

[Noun] 도

도 means 'also' or 'too' and attaches to the noun it applies to. It replaces 은/는, 이/가 and 을/를 rather than sitting next to them, so it is 저도, never 저는도. After other particles such as 에 it simply follows: 주말에도.

The mistake to avoid

Put 도 on the right word. 저도 커피를 마셔요 is 'I drink coffee too (like you)', while 저는 커피도 마셔요 is 'I drink coffee as well (as tea)'.
