"So" or "Very"
I wrote this sentence and somebody correct me with the next one. I am not sure that using "so" is uncorrect in the sentence 1. Can you help me?

1. I am so eager to learn Arabic, so if you are Arab and you like to learn Persian language don't hesitate and message me for language exchange.
2. I am very eager to learn Arabic, so if you are Arab and you would like to learn Persian, don't hesitate to message me for a language exchange.

Answer

Would not say it is incorrect. Only thing, the use of 'so' in that sense I would see more for an exclamation rather than for that type of formulation. e.g. 'Oh, I am so eager to learn!".Plus they might have corrected it because of the repetition of 'so' that happens in the first sentence.

Answer

In this case, both words are adverbs.  You could even use both, as in "I am so very eager..."
