  1. Reply to this question:
    What in Einstein’s life has fascinated you most? Why?

    • I am amazed how he revolutionized Physics by imagination and thinking, and not just experiments in laboratory. Because I think no one really did that on that time, to imagine and figure out new facts about the Universe.

      • I agree. It’s astonishing to know that he believed imagination is more important than knowledge.
        Feedback:
        * physics
        * at that time
        * the universe

        • I also wonder how his imaginations could actually turn into reality and universe rules and not just beyond reality fantasies.

          • Good question! I guess he was a profound thinker or a pensive person. Therefore, his imagination was not just restricted to wishful thinking or daydreaming, but reflection and contemplation. He had a great sense of intuition and clairvoyance, which should not be identified as bare imagination.
            * universal rules

        • Reply to your feedback:
          Is ( in that time) correct or the proposition is always ( at)?

          • When you want to specify an exact time, e.g. at 8:30 pm, use “at”.
            Although “in that time” is possible to use, it’s uncommon compared to “at that time”.

  2. Hi Doctor Hariri,
    I have a question: is it right to say, we too? like me too or you too.

    • Such an interesting question!
      “we too” is just colloquial, but it’s ungrammatical. This is because in “me too” or “you too”, me and you are objects, but “we” is a subject and its object is “us”. However, “us too” is not common.
      In short, “we too” exists but it’s common case of ungrammaticality which also exists among native speakers. To sound grammatical, you can use the following structure:
      So do / are / did / were we.
      For example:
      A: We were interested in the movie.
      B: So were we.
