Writing practice

Or: 还是 and 或者

You and a friend are shopping for a birthday present for a classmate, Wang Fang (王芳). Write a short dialogue (50–120 characters): discuss two options, choose a colour and size, try something on, and decide.

  • Ask a choice question with 还是
  • Say either option is fine with 或者
  • Use measure word + colour + 的 (这件蓝色的)
  • Use a casual "have a go" form: 试试, 试一试 or 看看

Pick with a tap, a number key or Space. A Chinese keyboard on your device works in the box below too.
