“Rúguǒ nǐ yǒukòng wǒ kěyǐ hé nǐ chī wǎnfàn.”

Why is the “hé” in this sentence? Doesn’t that mean “to drink”?

Actually "hē = to drink (first tone)

hé = and (second tone)

Function words are important__—??, 如果 we don’t know them, we will never be able to connect thoughts and sentences! ??_. Practice hard and 所以 you will be able to fill in the above blanks – in Chinese of course! What’s have to fill in ?? places?

Dear Manuel,

In your posting, there are few question marks ?. Is it intentional or you have problems in typing Chinese characters? If it is the latter case, let’s us know, we may be able to help.

Sorry, I’m bad explaining, because my English is quite poor. The ?? marks wanna means the ___ places to fill. I don’t know what have to fill in the marked blanks . That’s I want to know.

Hi Manuel, this is “fill in the blanks”, like what you did when you were at school.

We take all the function words ( because/ if/ so) out and let you to put the correct one to complete the whole paragraph
