Likewise 表示“同样地”；回应友好的话时，可以表示“我也是、彼此彼此”。书面语中，它引出与前一个情况相似的另一种情况，意思接近 similarly。对话中，它最常作为简短而礼貌的回应：别人说 Nice to meet you，可以回答 Likewise。

Sentence. Likewise, + similar point; do likewise (= do the same); “Nice to meet you.” “Likewise.”
- Children need clear rules at home. Likewise, new employees need clear instructions in their first weeks.
- Anna switched off her phone before the exam, and I did likewise.
- “It was a pleasure working with you on this project.” “Likewise, and good luck in your new job.”
修改原因
修改前“It was nice to meet you, Anna.” “Mutually!”
修改后“It was nice to meet you, Anna.” “Likewise!”
Mutually 好像也带有“相互、彼此”的意思，所以有人把它直接用作回答。但英语里不会用 Mutually! 单独回应这种客套话；它用于 mutually beneficial 这样的组合。自然的礼貌回答是 Likewise! 或 You too!
放在句首时，likewise 和 similarly 意思几乎相同，但 likewise 还有不同的用法。Do likewise 表示“照样做”：Everyone else left early, so I did likewise；这里不能直接换成 similarly。回应友好的话时，也用 likewise，而不用 similarly。日常对话中，do the same 比带书面色彩的 do likewise 更常见。

查看答案
Likewise — 医生和律师属于不同领域，但收到的建议相同：用通俗的语言与对方沟通。引出第二种类似情况，应选 Likewise。However 会引出转折，而第二句是在延续第一句的思路。
写一段简短对话：见面结束时，同事或刚认识的人对你说一句友好的话。用 Likewise 回应，再补充一句。
“It was great to finally meet you in person.” “Likewise! Let's have lunch next time you're in Berlin.”
