HSK 1 Adverbs

The adverb 也 (also, too)

Structure Subject + 也 + Verb/Adjective

也 (yě) means "also/too" and, like almost all Chinese adverbs, goes INSIDE the sentence, after the subject and right before the verb (or adjective). It never goes at the end like English "too". It combines with negation: 也不 ("not… either", habitual), 也没 ("not… either", past).

Examples

  • shìxuéshēng

  • huanzhōngguócài

    He also likes Chinese food.

  • zhīdào

    I don’t know either.
