If you want to express that you are doing something together with someone else, 一起 (yīqǐ) is your word!
Note: The pinyin for 一起 is written "yīqǐ" but pronounced "yìqǐ" due to a tone change rule.
Structure
一起 (yīqǐ) is the easiest way to express an action being done together with other people.
Subj. + 一起 + Verb + Obj.
The subject must be plural - a plural noun or two or more nouns linked with a conjunction. You can't do things together on your own, after all.
Examples
- 我们 一起 吃 晚饭 吧。Let's eat dinner together.
- 早上 我 和 老公 一起 去 上班。In the morning, I go to work together with my husband.
- 周末 我们 一起 去 看电影，好 吗？Let's go to the movies this weekend, shall we?
- 这 两 个 公司 一起 做 这个 产品。These two businesses made this product together.
- 下班 以后，你们 一起 来 我 家 吧。After work, why don't you all come to my home together?
- 下 个 月 我 和 妈妈 一起 去 旅行。Next month I'll go on a trip together with mom.
- 你们 有没有 一起 玩 过 这 个 游戏？Have you all ever played this game together?
- 他 想 和 他太太 一起 学 中文。He wants to study Chinese together with his wife.
- 结婚以后，你 和 父母 会 一起 住 吗？Will you live together with your parents after you get married?
