When to use 都 and 也 Word Order

都 and 也 usually sit before the verb, adjective, or 是 phrase. Their English translations may appear in different places, but Chinese keeps them in the adverb slot.

他也是学生。

He is also a student.

两个孩子都很高兴。

Both children are happy.

我也想去。

I also want to go.

他们都在学校。

They are all at school.

Common traps

  • Do not put 也 at the end because English says “too.”
  • 都 refers back to a plural or whole set.
  • If both appear, 也 usually comes before 都: 也都.
