Suggestions with "ba"

Revision as of 03:24, 13 June 2012 by Wu.mengmeng (talk | contribs)

The particle 吧 (ba) can be used to make suggestions or soften the tone of commands.

Structure

Command + 吧

Note that when you have a command with the subject "we," you're basically just saying, "let's (do something)." 吧 makes the suggestion sound more tentative and more polite.

Examples

  • 咱们 走
  • 快点 吃
  • 给 我 两 个
