How to say "stop here, please" in Chinese

请在这里停。

qǐng zài zhèlǐ tíng

Stop here, please

Grammar and structure

This is a polite request: 请 (qǐng) means 'please', 在 (zài) means 'at', 这里 (zhèlǐ) means 'here', and 停 (tíng) means 'stop'. So it literally means 'please stop at here'.

When to use it

Use this when you're in a taxi or car and want the driver to stop at your current location. It's polite and clear. A common mistake is forgetting 在, which would make it 'please stop here' but less natural—the 在 is needed to specify the location.
