Hi,

I would like to know, whether both following usages for:" I would like to see you this week." are
correct:

我想这周和你见面.
我想这周跟你见面


(compare following threads)

thanks,

Ole

I am accustomed to saying 跟 in this situation and I think I hear it more often but there really
isn't a difference in meaning...

Hi Myriam,


Quote:

So, er...Ole, if I may ask...Do you exchange your business card 跟 someone or do you 和 someone
exchange your business card?

without exactly knowing what tricky question this is, I would say : anything goes...

like:

那天我跟一个女同志换名片，我说认识你很高兴，我们换一下名片吧.
那天我和一个女同志换名片，我说认识你很高兴，我们换一下名片吧.




Ole

If I'm reading your post right you are attempting to demonstrate through said question that both
are okay, no? Otherwise, you really have me confused!










muyongshi -

Was it a rhetorical question saying that which would you say because both are correct in "exchange
cards with xxx" so it would be correct in the same way as "meet with xxxx"

Heck maybe I'm confused

i also think they are interchangable. i had learnt 'gen' as the one to use but in china i heard
everyone say 'he' so i actually say that more often now... when i asked my friends why the used
'he' instead of 'gen' there was usually just a shrug of the shoulders implying they can both be
used..

Check out the 跟/和/于 section of this site, for an explanation of the differences between them.

This is a confusing thread. Myriam, why did you ask Ole the topic starter (who asked which is
better, 跟 or 和) which is better, 跟 or 和?
