"还是" and "或者" are conjunctions used to express alternatives or options in Mandarin Chinese. Here are some guidelines on how to use them:
"还是" is used to express a choice between two or more options. It is often translated as "or" in English. It is used when the speaker is trying to make a decision or asking for someone else's opinion.
Example: 你喜欢喝咖啡还是茶?(nǐ xǐhuan hē kāfēi háishì chá?) - Do you like to drink coffee or tea?
"或者" is also used to express alternatives or options, but it implies that there are more than two choices available. It is often translated as "or" or "either...or" in English.
Example: 你可以去游泳、打篮球或者踢足球。(nǐ kěyǐ qù yóuyǒng, dǎ lánqiú huòzhě tī zúqiú.) - You can go swimming, play basketball, or play soccer.
In general, "还是" is used when there are only two options, while "或者" is used when there are more than two options. However, there can be some overlap in usage, and the choice of conjunction can depend on the context and the speaker's intent.

“或者”和“還是”作連詞時都表示選擇關係
(一)在疑問句中,用“還是
EG1:你學歷史還是學文學,快點決定.
2. 小王到底是同意還是不同意?
(二)在陳述句中,“或者”和“還是”都可以用,但是有幾種情況值得注意:
1. 在表示不確定的看法的陳述句中,以選擇問句作全句的賓語或主語,要用“還是”:
EG1: 我搞不清楚他是去了上海,還是去了北京.
2. 在家裡是你爸爸說了算,還是你媽媽說了算
簡單說: 「或者」一般用於肯定句,而「還是」則多用於疑問句。
(more)(一)在疑問句中,用“還是
EG1:你學歷史還是學文學,快點決定.
2. 小王到底是同意還是不同意?

连词“或者”跟连词“还是”虽然都能表示选择,但用法有区别。先说“或者”表示选择的情况。 “或者”表示需要从几种情况中选择一种。例如: (1)我打算明天或者后天去北京。(需要自己选择) (2)这个会你让老张去,或者让小王去,都可以。(需要对方选择) (3)这份材料或者你先看,或者我先看。(需要双方共同选择) (4)这个门或者向里推,或者向外拉,都能打开。(指对客观事物的选择) 表示由于选择的不同,存在着几种不同的情况,这时“或者”相当于“有的”。例如: (5)同学们或者打乒乓球,或者下象棋,或者练武术。 连词“或者”有时候不表示选择,而表示“或者” 后面的词语跟其前面词语的意思是相同的。例如: (6)我们称呼他“王师傅”或者“老王”。 连词“还是”表示选择的时候,跟“或者”不同,多用于疑问句。例如: (7)你吃苹果还是吃香蕉? 连词“还是”表选择时也可以用于陈述句,但这时往往具有“不知”的语意特点。例如: (8)我不知道他今天去还是明天去。
