Posted on: Ending Your Sentence with 吧 (ba)
September 02, 2008, 05:29 AM

I just heard a lesson on "ba" from a different source... and they said "ba" is used to imply a strong suggestion... but without it, the sentence would sound more commanding. Which is similar, but on this lesson it seems like you're saying "ba" is used to soften things... meaning it's not a strong suggestion.

 

Can someone clarify please?

I really like this a lot. I hope the videos are permanently for ALL paying members. It's a really great way to learn spoken and written vocabulary. Simple, and to the point. Like teaching a child. I really like it!

rrgh... I've been saying, 她是我的女儿 "Ta1 shi2 wo3 de nu3 er2" for like, two years now.

If I want to say, "my daughter's school," I suppose I should say, 他们学校 "tamen1 xue2 xiao4," right?

 

Anyhow, good one. I've been listening to Chinesepod for a couple of years and I have to thank you guys. Even though you don't know me, I really appreciate the effort everyone at Chinesepod puts into the lessons. I've gone from newbie to lower Elementary, even with several months of slacking.
