Sometimes you want to say that a group of people have something in common with something else. If this is the case you'll want to use 也 (yě) and 都 (dōu) at the same time. Put 也 first!

Structure

If you're using 也 and 都 in the same sentence, put 也 first:

Subject + 也 + 都 + Verb + Object

Some examples:

  • 他们 也 都 是 法国 人。They are also all French people.
  • 我们 也 都 喜欢 喝 啤酒。We also all like to drink beer.
  • 你们 也 都 是 学生 吗?Are you all students too?
