I can't know the difference between these three words and when I can put one or other!
"also", "too" and "as well"
If someone wants to help me and say some examples, thanks!

Also goes with the verb in the middle of a sentence:
We were feeling very tired and we were also hungry.
We say too...for (somebody/something):
This shirt is too big for me. I need a smaller size.
But we usually say too...to do something (not 'for doing'). So we say:
They spoke too quickly for us to understand.
Let's get a taxi. It's too far to walk home from here.
We say:
The food was so hot that we couldn't eat it.
but The food was too hot to eat. (without 'it')
:P
