Hello, today we are going to learn the character Ye.
The original character for Ye comes from the image of the ancient utensil for ladling water when washing.
And then the character's writing changes.
People use Yi to represent the original meaning as the utensil for ladling water.
And then Ye was borrowed to indicate also to.
Now we'll read up some Ye.

Also to
Ye was often used before the verb or adjective.
For example,
我也是 is to be, am, is, are.
我也是 me too.

Ye before the verb 是

The negative form.
