How to Write "This Little Boy" in ChineseThis word is ci. Ci. Ci. "Ci" means "this" or "the." This or the. This also has two parts. One part in left. This is actually another word, means, "to stop, to limit it." And this part on right, get together, "ci," means "this" or "the." If you say, "Ci tong zi" - remember we learned "tong zi." tong zi. Little boy. If you say, "Ci tong zi," means "this little boy, this boy." But in modern Chinese, we have another word to separate this, to represent "ci." That is, "zhe ge." "Zhe ge" also means "this" or "the," so "zhe ge tong zi" - the same meaning with "ci tong zi," but here we try to remember ci, ci tong zi, this boy.
