Structure

There are two words for "again" in Chinese. This depends on whether the repetition has happened, or whether it's going to happen.

If the repetition has happened, i.e. it's a repetition in the past, 又 is used.

Subject + 又 + Verb + 了

Notice that 了 is used as the action is complete.

Examples

  • 迟到 了。
  • 喝醉 了, 他 的 肝 怎么 受 得 了 呢?
  • 苹果十五块钱一斤?你 被 骗 了,我 已经 跟 你 说 过 买菜 的 时候 一定 要 讲价!
