Helen Zhang (Chinese Teacher) says
The Mandarin Chinese word “也 yě” translates into “also/too.” It is usually put before the predicate to indicate that the subject will do something./ or have a certain kind of feature, too. For example: Nǐ dǎsuàn qù páshān, wǒ yě xiǎng qù. 你打算去爬山,我也想去。 You are planning to go hiking. I also want to go. Bālí hěn měi, Lúndūn yě hěn měi. 巴黎很美,伦敦也很美。 Pairs is very beautiful. London is beautiful, too.
