Grammar 文法 wén fɑ̌
Express two or more things that you like

In unit 2, you have learnt the use of “ also “ in Chinese. In this unit, you are going to learn a sentence pattern to tell two or more things that you like. In English, the word “ also” can be used. In Chinese, the word 和 can be used to link up the two items. However, you may also use the following sentence pattern to do the same thing.
In making this sentence pattern, the word 也(yě) or 又(yòu) should be used in the subordinate clause. The pattern of the main clause and the subordinate clause should be the same. The only difference is the subject can be ignored in the subordinate clause and the word 也 (yě) or 又 (yòu) has to be added at the beginning of the subordinate clause. Example: 我喜歡中秋節和農曆新年。 wǒ xǐ huɑn zhōng qiū jié hé nóng lì xīn niɑ́n. —— 我喜歡中秋節，也喜歡農曆新年。 —— wǒ xǐ huɑn zhōng qiū jié，yě xǐ huɑn nóng lì xīn niɑ́n.
