How to Say ‘My feet are also a bit swollen’ in Simplified Chinese

脚也有点肿

jiǎo yě yǒu diǎn zhǒng

[jiǎo yeh yǒudiǎn zhǒng]

💬 Usage Tip: 也 "also" always sits right before the describing or action word, never at the end of the sentence the way English "too" can: 我也累 "I'm tired too".

Phrase Breakdown

脚也

jiǎo yě

the feet also

脚 (jiǎo) means 'foot' or 'feet' and 也 (yě) means 'also'. Both are third tones, so 脚 rises a little: jiáo yě.

Example

我的脚也疼。

My feet also hurt.

also; too

有点肿

yǒu diǎn zhǒng

a bit swollen

有点 (yǒu diǎn) means 'a bit' and 肿 (zhǒng) means 'swollen'. All three syllables are third tones, so say it as yóu dián zhǒng.
