to interfere and to interfere either

[blizzy]

Here a little bit Everyday-English. (At least I hope that this is the case with my sentences presented here.)
Can I say these in English?
But I also don't want to interfere.
But I don't want to interfere either.

As you will have seen from one of your other threads, it's best not to start a sentence with a conjunction, especially while you're still a learner. Please make longer sentences using these phrases and give us some context.

Okay. Two of my friends get into a fight.
Well, I don't want to interfere and keep my neutrality.
So I say to each of them the following.
But I also don't want to interfere.
But I don't want to interfere either.

But I also don't want to interfere.
But I don't want to interfere either.

What did you say before these sentences? You can only begin a sentence with a conjunction if it refers to something said previously.

This is of course a very good explanation!
Since I hadn't thought about it at all and the described situation is also purely hypothetical, I leave out the "but" for the time being.

I just say to my friends one of these sentences.
I also don't want to interfere.
I don't want to interfere either.

Let me add a little something. In German, this "but = aber" is so common in everyday language that you really don't think about it. This also goes for "and = und". Of course, the situation looks different in written German. But every language has its peculiarities.

You could say one of those sentences if someone had already said they didn't want to interfere.

You can say:
"I don't like to see them fighting, but I also don't want to interfere."
"I don't like to see them fighting, but I don't want to interfere either."

Okay. Two of my friends get into a fight.
Well, I don't want to interfere and keep my neutrality.

I don't want to take sides would work better.
