HashiriKata Posted July 3, 2009 at 08:40 AM Report Posted July 3, 2009 at 08:40 AM I've seen "与之" in a couple of sentences but don't know what it's there for, since the sentences all seem ok without it: 值得某人与之交锋 可与之打交道的 不能与之为敌，便与之为伍 产生与之相同的感情 Looks like a remnant of classical Chinese to me but I wonder anyone's got some better explanation/ info. Edit: Just realised that 之 can be used as a pronoun, so the question has been answered. Sorry! Quote
isela Posted July 3, 2009 at 09:08 AM Report Posted July 3, 2009 at 09:08 AM 与之 ＝ with it/him/her. Simply 与 = with, and 之= it/him/her. Quote
HashiriKata Posted July 3, 2009 at 11:07 AM Author Report Posted July 3, 2009 at 11:07 AM Simply 与 = with, and 之= it/him/her. I realised this as soon I posted the question, but just couldn't delete the post .Thank you for confirming, anyway! Quote
