My Whole Family Likes Chinese Food


Recommended Posts

Posted

usually ,as native speaker,we say :我们全家人都喜欢吃中国菜 or to be more brief :我们全家都喜欢吃中国菜.And In this scenario ,it's rare to add the 的 between 家 and 人 ,it sounds wordy and strangge ,just not natural.

You're right, when I read it out loud to myself it does sound a bit off.

Isn't 一家人 also acceptable?

Yes, it is.

Both 一家人 and 一家子 are okay, with 一家子 being more colloquial.

ooh right.. I've not heard 一家子 before. :) Seems like there are lots of ways of saying "my whole family". hahaha ;)
