mi tambien o yo tambien?

Question

My friend said hace mucho calor.

is it correct to respond mi tambien, or yo tambien?

Answer 1

I agree with completely Bosquederoble, although if you are the lazy type of person who uses as few words as possible you could respond by saying: Para mí también (Para mí también hace mucho calor).

Thanks, I had not thought of that option. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 22, 2016

Answer 2

My friend said hace mucho calor.

is it correct to respond mi tambien, or yo tambien?

No

Hace mucho calor- It is very hot.

Me too (huh?)

If he had said- tengo mucho calor- I am very hot

You could answer- Yo también (tengo mucho calor)

As in I also (am very hot)

Yo because it is the subject of the dropped part.

An example with mí:

Me gusta ver la tele. (I like to watch TV).

A mí también. (Me too) (Don't ask me why I can say that in English instead of "I do too")

Here you have an indirect object. This will only make sense if you understand how gustar works.

Maybe another example:

Me importa eso. That is important to me.

A mí también. To me as well.
