Mistakes English speakers make with aussi

Incorrect: Je aussi veux venir.

Correct: Je veux aussi venir. / Moi aussi, je veux venir.

Aussi rarely sits between subject and verb like English also sometimes does.

Incorrect: Also je viens.

Correct: Je viens aussi.

Use aussi, usually after the verb or in moi aussi.

Good to know

Moi aussi is the classic friendly echo. In writing, également can sound more polished; spoken French sticks to aussi.
