Hello,

Would it be correct to say: "I too am proud of myself" or must we put "too" at the end of the sentence: "I am proud of myself too".

Thank you very much.

@milimi,
You can choose either way.
Those who are fond of commas might do it this way:
"I, too, am proud of myself"

@milimi,
Rag's right, Mil; though the trend is away from the comma except where it's needed for meaning

Incidentally however, there might be a slight difference in meaning of the two sentences: Thbe second could imply that there also are other matters of which I'm proud

@dalehileman,
Actually the intent here is meant that I am proud and others may be proud also.

@Ragman,
Yea Rag I understand; but thought Mili might find my incidental observation of interest
