How do you write Are in Chinese?

Answer 1

"Are" in Chinese is 是. However, 是 is also "is" in English because in the Chinese language, words can be used to indicate singular and plural. By the way, 是 also means "yes" in Chinese when you are answering a question. 是 is the only word for "are/is" when you use it to describe an object, action, place, and more.

i want to just say it only means yes if the question involves shi itself, like 你是学生（ni shi xue sheng） you is student（are you a student）？ then you reply 是，我是学生 （shi， wo shi xue sheng） is，i is student（yes i am a student）or you could say that you arnt，不， 我不学生 （bu， wo bu xue sheng）
