Can “me, too” be used to reply to a negative statement? The double-negative is in the sense of responding to, "Are you not coming?" with "No." You are correct about the two clauses within the second dialogue: the clause after the comma is a clarification, and can stand on its own. |

Boilt or boiled I was under the impression that the -f form was the result of terminal devoicing due to the unstressing of the syllable (e.g.: dreamed → dreamt, etc.), rather than an aspectual distinction. |
