Hey~!

so, i wanted to know how to say "or" with verbs.For example:

Do you sleep or eat?

I have a feeling that it might be:

食べるとか、寝ますか?
But then again, it's just a guess. i really don't know. I've just seen "toka" places and i didn't really know what it did.

And now that I think about it,... also, how do you say "too " with verbs?

I eat and I also sleep.

I'm just taking a guess, but would it be:

食べて、寝るもあります。
?

Anyways, much thanks in advance ^^
 
There're several ways to say it.

Do you eat or sleep?
食べますか?それとも寝ますか?
食べるか、寝るかしますか?
食べるとか、寝るとかしますか?

I eat or sleep.
食べるか、寝るかします。
食べるとか、寝るとかします。

I eat and I also sleep.
食べるし、寝ます。
食べもするし、寝もします。
食べたりするし、寝たりもします。


Besides, the phrase 食べたり、寝たりします could be interpreted as both "and" and "or" depending on the context.
:)
 
I eat or sleep.
食べるか、寝るかします。
食べるとか、寝るとかします。
食べるか、または、寝ます。or something similar depending on exactly what you're trying to convey, should be alright as well...
