Your grammar videos are always such a big help! I didn't know that 不's tone would change if it's behind verbs like 是. Thank you very much! :)

❤Good lesson. Everything is clear and makes sense. One thing to add is that the more description you add to a Chinese sentense the more weird it gets, because Chinese is a left wing language. So, make short sentenses and be happy😂

Thank you, that was very helpful. The sentence structure gives me difficulties in longer sentences. I've only been learning Chinese for four weeks, so I'm hoping I can get the problem under control.

@cmaven4762 Жыл бұрын

This is SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!! This illustrates SO CLEARLY where I have be having trouble with my sentence structure! Am I correct in thinking other adverb/prepositional phrases of place, time, cause/effect would occupy the same place as the location marker in your example? If so, I have just taken a huge step forward in my understanding of Mandarin syntax .... 谢谢你

I just found your channel! I've been studying mandarin for a little bit over a year, but the sentence structure have always messed with my head (I understand the S+location+(AV)/V+V+O, but when it becomes a longer sentence I just kind of lose it. Really enjoyed how you present the topic of the video!

@klemmichard8916 2 жыл бұрын

Subject and object are functions, where verb is a kind. Basic grammar teaches you you can't blend kinds and functions. Either use noun phrase + verb + non phrase, or subject + predicate + object. You can also explain the syntax with agent + action + patient. But don't mix them up.

@cmaven4762 Жыл бұрын

This is indeed true, but I would argue that at least 80% of the viewers who are helped by this video would not be splitting hairs over the nomenclature. Besides that, most prescriptive instruction on language syntax ignores your stated rule of basic grammar, since sentence order is itself often described using a mixture of the two [to wit, SVO, SOV, VSO etc].

@klemmichard8916 Жыл бұрын

@@cmaven4762 Precisely my point. And as a leader in helping other, if the nomenclature doesn't really matter, why not teach people the real words ?

Great explanations!! However, Predicate Noun is NOT Direct Object, despite having same location. Examples--- They eat food--- food is Direct Object--- food is receiver of Their action of eating. She is a chef--- chef is Predicate Noun--- equivalent of She
