Abt the use of this words I had a rule: тоже, one action, two persons. Ты - злесь? Я тожe злесь. And также, two actions, one person. Я гуляю и также думаю. But I see in my grammar in an exercise something different: После поездки он привёз жене платье. Он тоже привёз друзьям разные сувениры. It wouldn't fit here better также?
Sounds unnatural to me. It's better to use "в то же время" here.Quote:

Excellent rule! I have never noticed that :)Quote:

«Ты решаешь задачи? Я решаю то же [самое].» ("I solving the same thing". Optional word "самое" in this content means "thing", "stuff" etc.)
If you concretise what is the same subject then you should use "ту же"/"тот же"/"того же"/"те же"/"тех же"/... to match the subject:
«Ты решаешь задачи? Я решаю те же задачи.» ("I solving the same tasks")
Even natives often confuse "то же" and "тоже":
«Ты решаешь задачи? Я тоже решаю.» ("I also solving something")
We also have "{action here} так же", which means the same way of doing something:
«Ты решаешь задачи? Я решаю так же.» ("I solving these problems the same way as you")
«Он плохо покрасил пол. Стены он покрасил так же.» ("He painted the walls the same bad way as the floor")
SAn, it might have seemed a typo if you had done it once, but seeing you do it four times running made me think that it’s about time you knew that present continuous is formed in a slightly different way. I hope you won’t mind me pointing that out for you. :wink:
"I solving the same thing."
"I solving the same tasks"
“I also solving something"
"I solving these problems the same way as you"
It should be "I am solving …"
Really? I always forming present continuous as in this sentence. What are the rules for that?Quote:

P.S. Throw that grammar away.
Thank you and excuse this злесь :oops: Are so close л и д...
