This is an example taken from the Genki textbook. It's an exercise on using
the particle も. It asks to translate the following sentence to Japanese:

```

    Yui ate ice cream on Friday. She ate ice cream on Saturday, too.
    
```

Now, I can surely translate it literally without omitting anything
unnecessarily:

```

    ゆいさんは金曜日にアイスクリームを食べました。土曜日にもアイスクリームを食べました。
    
```

However, I am learning how to omit repeating things or things that are clear
from the context in Japanese, as it is a bit different from how it works in
the languages I know. _In the translation above, can I omit the word 'ice
cream' in the second sentence?_ So it would look like this:

```

    ゆいさんは金曜日にアイスクリームを食べました。土曜日にも食べました。
    
```

_Would this shortening sound natural in Japanese?_ I couldn't figure this out
in Genki, neither could I find an answer online. Sorry if the question is
trivial, I'm still getting a feel of this aspect of the language. Thanks!
