As they say in the Real Estate business: Location, Location, Location. In Chinese, you can show location by using "在 (zài)" which means "to be located (at some place)". The structure is: Subj. + 在 (zài) + ma It is used to ask if something/someone you're looking for is "here". To answer: Somebody + 在 (zài) = "That someone is here". However, if the answer is negative, you can use: someone + bù + 在 (zài) = someone is NOT here. An example: 他 不 在 学校。 Tā bù zài xuéxiào. He is not at school. Somebody + 在 (zài) + nǎr? Means "where is somebody?" To answer: Tā + 在 (zài) + location Watch the video lesson, take the quiz and check your answers here: http://goo.gl/lJqiez Learn more with us: http://goo.gl/66K4lr
