Sentence-final interjection "a"
Revision as of 02:37, 22 November 2011 by Jonathan.pope (talk | contribs)
The interjection 啊 (ā) is often added to the end of sentences to create one of the following effects:
- Friendliness
- Enthusiasm (sometimes urgency)
- Cuteness
Which of these it means depends entirely on the context of use. It can be added to the end of most sentences, but be careful not to over-use it!
- 你好 啊!
- 你 怎么 样 啊?
- 是 啊!
- 对 啊!
