   Hi, Ardith Hinton!   
   I read your message from 29.06.2019 16:24   
      
    AK>> When a person is in a company of friends he never speaks formally.   
    AK>> And he should not to. It is too loathsome, IMHO.   
      
    AS>> Correction: "should not" or "ought not to" (depending on what you   
    AS>> mean).   
      
    AK>> Is it true, Ardith? Can I replace "speak" for "to"?   
      
    AH> I agree with Anton that "to" as you used it here doesn't work. IMHO   
    AH> what he's suggesting is that if you don't want to overuse the   
    AH> verb "speak" you could correctly say "he should not (do so)" or "he   
    AH> ought not to (do so)".   
      
   I meant something like this:   
   -----Beginning of the citation-----   
   "Instead of which," I said, "in a month's time I take the most important   
   examination of my career."   
      
   "I should advise you not to." (Ch. Snow)   
   ----- The end of the citation -----   
      
   I.e. the main idea (I take the most important examination) was replaced by   
   "to", so that to be shorter.   
      
   Bye, Ardith!
