Hello, Michelle. How's it going today? I'm good, Lindsay. Lindsay, do you love good sales? Of course, yes. Me too. I get so excited when there's a good sale. And of course, now with the holidays, there's been good sales. Did you buy anything over the holidays, maybe Black Friday?
Yeah. Yeah, I did. I bought a few things. Not so much Black Friday, but more the weeks after that. I went Christmas shopping in stores and online. And yeah, who doesn't love a good sale, Michelle?
Yeah, exactly. So today we are going to answer a really great listener question. Yes. So, yeah, this is going to be a good one. Very important.

Lindsay, would you like to read the question? I would love to. Here is our question. Hi, Aubrey, Lindsay, and Michelle. I'm Samet from Istanbul, Turkey. I want to go to Turkey, by the way. So bad. Thank you for accompanying me on my morning jogs every day. So nice. All those English listeners are not just listeners. They are also observers. I have a question because there's a real connection point here. In the episode, Are You Slaying English? At 1326, one of you says, I love Johnny Depp. And the other responds, me too. Connection is essential here.
How can I express agreement in English effectively?
So could you explain expressions like me too, neither do I, either do I, et cetera, because they all express shared opinions, experiences, or feelings. Thank you in advance. Yeah, I love that this listener is so tuned in to connection like we are, Michelle.
Yes, definitely. And this is huge. I mean, this is a really good episode for connection. I think this could be one of our top connection episodes. Yes, I can't wait. Really? Yeah. So, I mean, because we connect with people by sharing our opinions, our interests, right? Trying to find things in common. So this is really about agreeing and finding common ground. Oh my gosh, totally. Yeah. Totally. Yeah.
I mean, Lindsay, so what does Me Too mean? It means I agree with you. Like I see that thing the same way that you do. It's the same for me. I feel the same. I've experienced the same thing you have, which the listener is totally right. It is a connection moment.
Such a big connection moment. So we are going to talk more about this in just a second.
