How to Say ‘If you need anything, come to me.’ in Simplified Chinese

有事儿就找我。

yǒu shì ér jiù zhǎo wǒ

[yǒu shìr jiù jaow waw]

💬 Usage Tip: Chinese often needs no word for "if": a situation followed by 就 already means "if/when this happens, then...". Reuse it like this: 有问题就问我 "if you have a question, ask me".

🇨🇳 In China: Colleagues, especially more senior ones, say this to a newcomer to be welcoming. It's a real offer, so taking them up on it later is fine.
