pronoun + too/neither

[Verona_82]

Hello,

I've been asked if it's possible to replace 'me' in 'me, too' and 'me, neither' with another pronoun or a noun:

A: - I like beer.
B: - Me too. (pointing at C) and her too.
C: - Yes.

My immediate response was a firm no, but I thought it'd be better if I checked.

Thanks!

Only in speech, and only in informal settings, of course, but sure.

A: And you're coming with me.
B: I am?
A: Yes, and (pointing at C) him too.
B: Him too?
C: Yup, me too.

With any sort of formality than "and so does she" or "and she does too" are better choices.

Thanks, Barb_D! Didn't know that. Is the same true of "her neither"?

Going only on gut reaction, that feels more "stretched" to me - like someone who deliberately uses "ain't" for effect, I think "her neither" is farther from the mainstream than "her too." But... I could be wrong.
