Expressing "even if…" with "jishi"

Revision as of 02:39, 1 November 2011 by Jonathan.pope (talk | contribs)

即使...也(jíshǐ) means "even though X...will still Y". Here are some examples:

  • 即使 当 这么 多 人 的 面,也 要 批评 他。
  • 即使 不 想 听, 应该 假装 你 感兴趣
  • 现在 即使 是 高峰期, 要 出去 吃饭,太 饿 了!

即便 can be used interchangeably with 即使, and means the same.
