Expressing "together" with "yiqi"

If you want to express that you are doing something together with someone else, 一起 (yīqǐ) is your word!

Note: The pinyin for 一起 is written "yīqǐ" but pronounced "yìqǐ" due to a tone change rule.

一起 (yīqǐ) is the easiest way to express an action being done together with other people.

The subject must be plural - a plural noun or two or more nouns linked with a conjunction. You can't do things together on your own, after all.
