连词"和"

HSK 1Lesson 10
The Conjunction "和"
解释Explanation

"和"用来连接名词或代词,意思是"and"。"和"一般不连接两个句子或两个动作。

"和" means "and", but only for joining nouns or pronouns (a book and a cup; you and I). Unlike English "and", it normally does not join two sentences or two actions — for those, simply say the two parts one after the other.

例句Examples
  • 我和王明是同学。
    Wǒ hé Wáng Míng shì tóngxué.
