Review Summary

  • Interrogative/Pronoun + zh

よくある間違い

The particle 'zh' should immediately follow the word it emphasizes, usually an interrogative pronoun.

Wrong: Що ти ж робиш?
正解: Що ж ти робиш?

Placing 'zh' too late in the sentence weakens the emphatic effect.

Wrong: Я хочу ж піти.
正解: Я ж хочу піти.

The particle 'zh' never comes at the very end of a statement; it must be internal.

Wrong: Де ти є же?
正解: Де ж ти є?
