Keywords
"还有" (háiyǒu) is used to express "in addition..." or "and also..." in a conversation. It is introducing new information to the topic the speaker is talking about, as an afterthought. While it's not the most challenging grammar structure, an important thing to keep in mind is that 还有 normally starts a completely new sentence or clause.
Structure
It's as simple as using 还有 before the new clause or sentence. 还有 can also be used with a comma, similar to how we can say "in addition, . . ." in English.
[Clause ]，+ 还有 ，+ [Clause 2]
Examples
- 你 需要 吃 点 药。还有，要 多 休息 。You need to take some medicine. Also, you should get more rest.
- 你 跟 他 一起 去 吧。还有，别 忘 了 带 这 些 材料。Please go with him. Also, don't forget to bring these materials.
- 我 今天 要 考试。还有 ，我 必须 要 写 完 中文 作文。I’m going to have an exam today, Plus, I must finish writing my Chinese essay.
- 今天 特别 倒霉，他的 女朋友 离开 了 他，还有 他 的 老板 要 解雇 他。Today he's really unlucky. His girlfriend left him, and on top of that, his boss is going to fire him.
