も, too, also

も replaces は or が and means 'too' or 'also'. Repeated, it means 'both' or, with a negative, 'neither'.

The mistake to avoid

も takes the place of は and が rather than sitting next to them. Never 私はも.

Examples

わたしも がくせいです。
I am a student too.
みずも おちゃも あります。
There is both water and tea.
