Hi
I am having trouble understanding the complete use of the phrase [size=150][color=red]So much as[/size].
Could you please explain it to me along with a couple of examples?
Tom

Hey, Amy, loads and loads of thanks! 
Having learnt the use of so much as I am making some sentences. Could you please tell me if they are (100%) OK? :lol:
1- She can not so much as make herself a cup of tea.
2- He did not so much as speak to me.
3- He cannot so much as speak correct English let alone write!
4- He did not so much as call to ask after me no to speak of coming to my house.

Looks good, Tom. 
[size=75]I’d add a[/size] “t” [size=75]to number 4, though. [/size]
