Question

So/so much
Hi, there

Which of THESE sentences is right?

"I've never been SO appreciated at work as I am now", "I've never been SO MUCH appreciated at work as I am now" or ""I've never been  appreciated SO MUCH at work as I am now" or "I've never been appreciated at work AS MUCH AS I am now"

Thank you very much

Answer

All of the sentences are correct. 'so' and 'so much' are interchangeable in your examples. I would prefer saying 'so much', myself. It seems (to me) slightly more casual and because of that a little more natural to use.

Answer

What about "I've never been SO (AS) appreciated at work AS I am now"?

Answer

You can leave "so" out if you want.  It's only used to emphasize your point.  You could also say, " I've never been appreciated like this at work as much as I am right now."

Answer

Montrel, would you use both "so" and "as much as"?

Answer

I would say... "I've never been so appreciated at work as much as I am right now."
