Hi,I am Jun, a language tutor who can speak Chinese,Japanese,English and Cantonese.
Welcome to my Chinese lesson.

We learn 
in HSK 1.Today I want to have a small talk about the Chinese Question Particles:
They are so common that every Chinese use one of it at least once every day, but for foreigners, it's difficult to tell the differences between them.
Let me tell you how.

(ma)

It can be used when you want to confirm sth., and usually for the yes-no question.

1.(nǐ)
(shì)(zhōng)(guó)(rén)(ma)

Are you a Chinese? 


2. (nǐ)
(rèn)(shi)(tā)(ma)

Do you know Him?


You can only answer them with "yes" or "no".
But please remind that

2.(nǐ)

  Are you a student (or not)?

 

(ne)

It is used in the Special or What-Questions. The questions begin with such as When/Where/Who/What/Why/How/How many.....

How long have you been studying Chinese?

2.(wǒ)(de)(qián)(bāo)(ne)
