Hi there,

Being lack of vocabulary? Many of us would feel that way learning another language. This time let’s meet another word for situation needs to be confirmed.  Other than telling people shì de是的 or duì对, be more confident and say dāng rán当然: of course!

As an adverb modifying verbs, it works the same as “of course” in English.

In English “No way.” refers to the thoughts that you believe there is no possibility for something to happen. While in Chinese Mandarin, this expression could be translated according to different situations. Here is an example:

I know I owe you 200 yuan. But could you be kind and lend me more 100?

我知道我欠你200 元。但是你能不能行行好再借我 100?

(wǒ zhī dào wǒ qiàn nǐ 200 yuán.dàn shì nǐ néng bu néng háng háng hǎo zài jiè wǒ 100?)

No way!

没门！(méi mén!)
