I came across a post on this site saying that :

> 私もです

For example was not correct grammatically, and that instead, we had to use

> 私でもある。

I'm very confused now even though I know 私もです is used a lot, I don't know
wether it's correct or not.

Saying 私でもある makes me feel like I'm writing a book or a poem because of である.
And on the other hand 私もです sounds very natural and correct to me because です is
basically a contraction of であります, so we could say でもあります but not something
like でもす so i feel like it's obvious that も comes before です.

So to me でもある is used just like である, but with the particle も added meaning
"also, too", so mostly used in writing. And もです is used like です, in everydays
life just to express a simple "Me too"

But after seeing those posts saying that もです is grammatically not correct, I
wondered if もである with the particle も being before である is correct.

question
particles particle-も
も Particle before です
When talking casually, 私も is extremely common and, depending on the situation,
often means "me too".

I would like to see the full post you mentioned, but I'd guess that whoever
wrote 私もです was just finding a polite way to say 私も. Either way, 私もですis not
wrong.
