WHICHWORD?
also / as well / too
Also is more formal than as well and too, and it usually comes before the main verb or after be: I went to New York last year, and I also spent some time in Washington. In BrE it is not usually used at the end of a sentence. Too is much more common in spoken and informal English. It is usually used at the end of a sentence: 'I'm going home now.' 'I'll come too.'. In BrE as well is used like too, but in AmE it sounds formal or old-fashioned.
When you want to add a second negative point in a negative sentence, use not...either: She hasn't phoned and she hasn't written either. If you are adding a negative point to a positive one, you can use not...as well/too: You can have a burger, but you can't have fries as well.
