How to Say ‘Am I still missing any documents?’ in Traditional Chinese

我還缺什麼文件嗎?

wǒ hái quē shén me wén jiàn ma

[wo hái quē shénme wénjiàn ma]

💬 Usage Tip: 還 (hái) means "still" and sits right before the verb. 缺 (quē) means "lack", and 還缺 asks what's still outstanding. Same slot: 我還要什麼? "What else do I still need?"
