How to Say ‘Do you like Haruki Murakami too?’ in Simplified Chinese
你也喜欢村上春树吗？
nǐ yě xǐ huān cūn shàng chūn shù ma
[nee yeh xǐhuan Cūnshàng Chūnshù ma]
💬 Usage Tip: To turn a statement into a yes/no question, just add 吗 (ma) at the end. 也 (yě) "also" always comes before the verb, never at the end the way "too" does in English.
