If someone tells you there will be a meeting at 3pm, you want to say I know in Chinese. Here we use the word: \u6211\u77e5\u9053\u4e86(w\u01d2 zh\u012bdào le). It means thank you for telling me this, I know. Let’s look at the sentence more carefully.<\/div>\n

If someone tells you something you’ve already know, you want to say I knew it in Chinese. Chinese people will say: \u6211\u77e5\u9053(w\u01d2 zh\u012bdào). This sentence means I’ve already known this so you don’t need to tell me. For example, Mum said to her son: don’t forget your bag. And her son replied: W\u01d2 zh\u012bdào. The reply means I knew, and you’re so annoying. Depending your tone, it could be an impolite reply. Let’s look at it carefully.<\/div>\n
