M: Meanwhile, let's look at the new things. I asked Stuart, 你把它落在商店了吗 nǐ bǎ tā . The bǎ in bǎ tā is the same bǎ as in bǎ something fàng zài somewher. But here we use 落 LA là, instead of fàng. Là means 'to leave accidentally', as in 'I left it in the shop' là zài shāngdiàn le. So, did you leave it in the shop? nǐ bǎ tā là zài shāngdiàn le ma? Say it, everyone. 你把它落在商店了吗?
