How to Say "Too" in Spanish - How To Say Guide

también

/tamˈbjen/

The English phrase 'too' (meaning likewise) is translated into Spanish as también.

Meaning: (focus) likewise (adv)

Which one should you use?

While también is used for positive agreement, you should use tampoco when responding to a negative statement to mean 'neither' or 'not either'.

As an adverb, the position of también in a sentence is flexible. It often appears after the verb or at the end of a clause.

/tamˈbjen/

Do not use también to mean 'too much' in the sense of an excessive amount. To express that something is excessive, use demasiado instead.

The word también is a compound of two words, tan meaning 'so' and bien meaning 'well'.
In many Spanish-speaking cultures, instead of just saying también, you might see people repeat the entire verb phrase or use a nod to show emphatic agreement.
