How to pronounce it

The opening ho2 m4 ho2 ji5 asks “can you”; gong2 do1 ci3 asks for one more saying of the line. aa3 softens the question.

  • ho2 m4 ho2 ji5can you?
  • gong2 do1 ci3say it one more time
  • aa3friendly question ending

Practise the whole request so you can use it promptly when you miss a spoken line.

When to use it

Use when you caught the sound but need another pass.

Try it when: Asking someone to repeat what they just said.

Rough literal gloss: can-not-can say one more time.
