How to Say ‘Hang out together’ in Simplified Chinese
一起玩儿
yì qǐ wán ér
[ee-chee wánr]
💬 Usage Tip: The 儿 blends into the word before it, so 玩儿 is said (wánr) as one syllable. You'll hear this especially from northern speakers.
🇨🇳 In China: 玩儿 covers any casual hanging out, like meals, karaoke, or just chatting. It doesn't only mean playing games.
