\tThe particle \u5462 has more uses than \u5417, but we’ll look at the most important one here: forming queries, or asking bounce-back questions.<\/p>\n

\tThe most common use for \u5462 is probably to form simple queries. All you do is put \u5462 after the thing you want to query. This is often equivalent to saying “and … ?“, “what about … ?” or “how about … ?” in English. Some examples:<\/p>\n

\t\u4f60\u5462\uff1f
\tN\u01d0 ne?
\tAnd you?
\t\u6211\u5462\uff1f
\tW\u01d2 ne?
\tWhat about me?
\t\u8fd9\u4e9b\u4e1c\u897f\u5462\uff1f
\tZhèxi\u0113 d\u014dngxi ne?
\tWhat about these things?
\tAs you can see, it’s very easy to query things in Chinese using \u5462. Just say the thing you’d like to know about, and put \u5462 right after it. This is very commonly used to ask ‘bounce-back questions’ in Chinese. This is when someone asks you a question, and you return the question to them after answering it. This is commonly done by simply asking “\u4f60\u5462\uff1f”.<\/p>\n

\tThere are a few other uses for \u5462 in Chinese grammar, but we won’t go into detail about those in this article.<\/p>\n
