How to say 'Will you marry me' in Chinese

Though it's still about a month to go, it might be useful to practise this before the Valentine's day. If you want to go further from merely saying "I Love You", which we taught previously, you don't want to miss this post.

nǐ yuàn yì jià gěi wǒ mā?=Will you marry me?

(shì de,) wǒ yuàn yì. =(Yes,) I do.

Please be noted that in Chinese when we say the version of 'Yes, I do' we usually omit the 'Yes' part and just say 'wǒ yuàn yì'.

Of course, the 'do' in 'I do' does not mean 'yuàn yì' itself, but 'will' does.
