How to Say ‘And what about this one next to it?’ in Traditional Chinese

那旁邊這個呢？

nà páng biān zhè gè ne

[nà pángbiān zhè guh ne]

💬 Usage Tip: Ending with 呢 means "and what about...?" and reuses the question you just asked, so you don't have to repeat it. 那 (nà) at the start works like "so" or "then", not "that".
