How to Say ‘To learn a bit more’ in Simplified Chinese
再了解一下
zài liǎo jiě yī xià
[dzeye lyao-jyeh ee shyah]
💬 Usage Tip: 一下 (yí xià) after a verb softens the request to "a little", which makes it sound casual and polite. You can use it with other verbs too, as in 看一下 "take a quick look". Note that 一 is said (yí) here because 下 has a falling tone.
