    zěnme怎么how, how come





    note
    Zěnme can also be used to express a meaning similar to "how come".





    new word
    nàme那么so




    new word
    zhème这么so

    note
    Although nàme and zhème both mean "so", zhème is more appropriate for things that are close by (like the difference between "this" and "that").


    note
    Xiǎo can also mean "young". In this context it doesn't mean small in size, more like small in age.
