X就是了 for “Just Do X, That’s All”

End a sentence with 就是了 to reassure someone, promise something or say “just do X, no big deal.”

Pattern

verb phrase / clause + 就是了

就是了 at the end of a sentence means “just do X, and that settles it”; it reassures, promises, or gives in.

你别担心,我明天一定还你就是了。

When to use X就是了 for “Just Do X, That’s All”

Put 就是了 after a verb phrase or a short clause. It tells the listener that this one action is all that is needed, so there is nothing to worry about or argue over.

不会做就问老师就是了,别着急。

If you can’t do it, just ask the teacher. Don’t stress.

好好好,我现在去就是了。

Okay, okay, I’ll go right now.

这件事不难,照我说的做就是了。

This isn’t hard. Just do what I said.

你要是累了,休息一会儿就是了,作业明天再做。

If you’re tired, just rest for a bit. You can do your homework tomorrow.

Common traps

  • 就是了 goes at the very end of the sentence, after the action.
  • Don’t mix it up with 就是 + drawback (“it’s just that …”), which starts a clause.
  • Said impatiently, 我去就是了 can sound like “fine, I’ll go”; keep your tone friendly.

Targeted drill

Practice this exact pattern before moving on.

好好好,我现在去 。

Okay, okay, I’ll go right now
