Let Alone: 何况 and 更不用说

You've just checked out of a hotel that was nothing like its photos. Write a review for a travel website (150–300 characters). Say how bad things were with 极其 or 得要命, push your complaints further with 甚至, and use 何况 or 更不用说 to add a final point.

  • Degree: 极其 + adjective, or adjective + 得要命 / 得不得了
  • 甚至 to add an even more surprising detail
  • 何况 or 更不用说 for 'let alone' or a clinching reason
  • A clear recommendation to other travellers

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