Combination of verb + ことも


In the following sentence:

知りたい こと も、後で ちゃんと 教えてあげる…

The first part: 知りたい こと, I understand as: _what (you) want to know_ , because
of -tai and koto combination.

The second part: 後で ちゃんと 教えてあげる…, means I think: _(I) will properly inform
(you) later_.

The above seems to make sense when put together, but I think I'm not capturing
the meaning of も. The first part seems like a noun and with a single も in the
sentence my guess would be _too/also_.

Considering this, could the sentence be translated as: _(It is) what (I) want
to know too, (I) will properly inform (you) later._? Am I at least close?




As soon as I read your last sentence, I knew that you were overthinking. The
sentence in question is much simpler than you seem to think both in structure
and meaning.

> 「知{し}りたい こと **も** 、後{あと}で ちゃんと 教{おし}えてあげる。」

The 「も」 simply suggests that there are other things (besides what the listener
wants to know) that the speaker will be explaining/teaching for the listener
later on.

In other words, 「も」 modifies 「教えてあげる」.

Your guess of 「も」 being "too/also" is correct, but the important thing is to
know "what too", "also what", etc.

Unless this sentence appeared in a context/situation **_so unusual_** that I
could not even have imagined, it would mean:

> "I will surely teach (or "explain to") you the thing(s) you want(ed) to know
> **_and stuff (or "other things")_**."
