用法How to use 一块儿
一块儿 is an erhua colloquial form with two common uses: as an adverb meaning “together” (like 一起), and as the erhua form of 一块 meaning “a piece/lump” before a noun. In the “together” use it comes before the verb: 我们一块儿去; in the “piece” use it is followed by a noun: 一块儿蛋糕. It can also colloquially mean “one yuan”; in HSK 3 the core pattern is the adverb “together.”
