"我的妈妈也是老师。"

Translation: My mother is also a teacher.

[arawn.x]

This should omit the 的 because it's talking about the subject's mother, right?

[AbaddonWan]

omitting or without omitting are both right

[huffletuff]

I heard that both are technically correct, but that it's pretty unnatural to include 的. It's better to just say 我妈妈.

[Lien2121]

Both versions are allowed.

[RowanCWill]

I see two translations given:

Translation: My mother is also a teacher." sounds natural. The other; "My mother too is a teacher", is not wrong, but sound unnatural. 'My mum/mother is a teacher too" being more natural in English, or at least in British English. No biggie, but anything to make this even better.

Great job on making this course guys!

Along with father, shouldn't mother be 母亲(Mùqīn)?

[NatureSheriff_7]

I see what you mean. "妈妈" is informal and therefore should be translated as "mom" or "mama" or something like that. "母亲" is formal and would be the correct characters for a translation of mother.

Isn't it strange how the worth for mom is the same or similar in almost every language.

[SeanLogan11]

my teacher is also a mother. true fact.

[VinnyBunby]

Mum or Mom are both accepted, because they are both standard English.
Mama is very dialectal.

[Lipetronix]

My mother is also a teacher. <3

Damn this is fun

[MicahHeyer]

How would you specify between a teacher and the teacher in the Chinese language, or is it mostly context?

[SamantaDo]

Where is "also"?!

[kn515iHd]

It says that 也 (Pinyin = yě) means: also / too / (in Classical Chinese) final particle implying affirmation.

One place you can read about it is here: https://duolingo-mandarin-chinese.netlify.app/#4

[jdutton81]
