HSK 7–9 grammar · adverb

亦

亦 — also, too (classical)

Pattern

+ +
( ) can be left out · other words may come before, between and after

How it works

亦 is the literary equivalent of 也, "also, likewise". It survives in written Chinese and idioms such as 人云亦云 "to parrot others". Like 也, it sits before the verb.

Examples

此法亦可行。
Cǐ fǎ yì kěxíng.
This method is also workable.
他亦有同感。
Tā yì yǒu tónggǎn.
He feels the same way too.
