Learn Rephrasing with 就是说 with practical HSK 4 examples, focus vocabulary, common pitfalls, and targeted cloze practice.

就是说，我们还要再等一天。

When to use Rephrasing with 就是说

Read 就是说 + explanation as a sentence tool, not just as vocabulary. First locate the main action or claim, then ask what 就是说 adds to it.

就是说，我们还要准备。

That is to say, we still need to prepare.

就是说你同意了。

That is to say, you agreed.

Common traps

  • Do not translate 就是说 + explanation mechanically from English; check the Chinese word order first.
  • Keep 就是说 close to the part of the sentence it controls.
  • Do not overuse the pattern in every sentence; use it when it adds a clear role.
