Japanese

<p>
	The word <strong><ruby>一i緒ssho</ruby></strong> means <strong>together</strong>.
	When it is used with the particle <strong>に</strong>, it expresses the idea of doing something with someone.
	It can be used to invite someone to do something with you, for example:
</p>

<table class="ui celled table">
    <tbody>
		<tr data-item="267013"></tr>
	</tbody>
</table>

<p>
	When preceded by the particle <strong>と</strong>, it shows who you are with or who you are doing something with.
	So for example you can say:
</p>

<table class="ui celled table">
    <tbody>
		<tr data-item="267014"></tr>
	</tbody>
</table>

<p>
	A common situation you might hear <strong><ruby>一i緒sshoに</ruby></strong> in Japan is at a restaurant.
	The server might ask you how you would like to pay the bill, and ask if you will be paying together or separately:
</p>

<table class="ui celled table">
    <tbody>
		<tr data-item="267017"></tr>
	</tbody>
</table>

<p>
	Note the use of the honorific <strong>ご</strong> which makes the sentence more polite.
	You can then answer one of the following:
</p>

<table class="ui celled table">
    <tbody>
		<tr data-item="267018"></tr>
		<tr data-item="267020"></tr>
	</tbody>
</table>

<p>
	In the sentences above, you can use either <strong>に</strong> or <strong>で</strong> without changing the meaning.
	We will cover this use of <strong>で</strong> further in a later lesson.
