Notice the contrasting tones on in the following sentences:</p>

  720. <p>(b) To make negative a sentence containing the conjunction gēn, &quot;and,&quot; the negative is placed with the main verb. In sentences containing the prepositional verb gēn, &quot;with,&quot; the negative precedes the prepositional verb. (You have seen this pattern with other prepositional verbs, for example, zai [see BIO, Unit 2, notes on Nos. 8-11].) Notice the contrasting positions of the negatives in the examples below:</p>

  755. <p>Dui,”to,” &quot;towards,” &quot;with regard to,” &quot;with respect to,<sup>n</sup> is a prepositional verb which originally meant &quot;facing.&quot; In modern Chinese, its object introduces either the target of the action or the thing concerned. Contrast this with gěi, &quot;for&quot;: the object introduced by gěi receives the benefit of the action. These generalizations may help you sort out some of the differences between dui and g§i. You might find it helpful to memorize some examples, as well.</p>

  852. <p><sup>f,</sup>I<sup>f</sup>m going out FOB a little vhile. Let<sup>f</sup>s review the placement of different kinds of time expressions in a Chinese sentence.</p>
  853. <p>If you want to say yhen something happens (&quot;yesterday&quot;) or in hov long something happens (”in two years<sup>11</sup>), you are using time phrases which in Chinese are considered to be POINTS IN TIME. Not only is a time phrase such as &quot;two o<sup>1</sup>clock” a point in time, but a phrase such as &quot;five days” can also be a point in time if the focus is on the end of this period of time. In English, this focus is expressed by <sup>11</sup> in five days,<sup>11 ,f</sup>by the end of five days,&quot; or <sup>!&gt;</sup>at the end of five days.<sup>11</sup> In Chinese, you do not need to use words such as &quot;in/<sup>1</sup> &quot;at/<sup>1</sup> or <sup>1</sup> phrase in the sentence indicates the considered points in time are placed</p>
  854. <p>WHEN (a point in time)</p>
  855. <p>Wo &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;zuStieLn kilnjian ta le.</p>

  860. <p>I saw him yesterday.</p>
  861. <p>I have been here before,</p>
  862. <p>I<sup>f</sup>ll be back at tvo o<sup>f</sup>clock.</p>
  863. <p>I can<sup>f</sup>t make it back by one o<sup>1</sup>clock•</p>
  864. <p>AT THE END OF/BY THE END OF (a period of time which is treated as</p>

  870. <p>I finished doing it in (~by the end of) three days.</p>
  871. <p>I’m leaving in Tat the end of) five minutes.</p>
  872. <p>151</p>
  873. <p>MTG, Unit 1</p>
  874. <p>Ni J^tiān huilai?</p>
  875. <p>Ni duōjiǔ kěyi xiěwan7</p>
  876. <p>In (at the end of) hov many days will you come back?</p>
  877. <p>Hov long will it *be before you can finish writing it? (by the end of hov long)</p>
  878. <p>On the other hand, phrases which express CONTINUATION OF TIME have a different place in sentences. To express an amount of time which passes, put the time expression AFTER THE VERB.</p>
  879. <p>DURATION (the length of time something continues)</p>
  880. <p>WS xiǎng gēn tā těn yihulr•</p>
  881. <p>Tā ZEli Xianggang zhule yige xingq.1.</p>

  885. <p>She stayed in Hong Kong for one veek.</p>
  886. <p>which has passed since something</p>
  887. <p>He died three years ago&gt;</p>
  888. <p>Wo zuōwanle yige zh5ngt6u le. It has been an hour since I finished.</p>
  889. <p>Because yihulr follows the verb in vo chūqu yihuir, it indicates the length of time which will pass after I go out (chūqu), YĪhuir precedes the vert in vo yihulr chūqu, indicating when I will go out (&quot;in a little vhile<sup>11</sup>).</p>
  890. <p>Yěxǔ literally means <sup>lf</sup>perhaps.<sup>11</sup> The word is often used where ”may’,or &quot;might&quot; tfould be appropriate in English.</p>
  891. <p>Yěxǔ liangdiSn huibulě.i, &quot;I might not (be able to) get &quot;back &quot;by tvo&quot;: Notice that this expression liangdian&gt; in time-when position, before the vert, means ”ty&quot; a certain time. Other time phrases in this position may also mean &quot;切” a certain time.</p>
  892. <p>HuibulHi is another form of huilai,&quot;to come back.<sup>,f</sup> Compound verbs of result may be split by the negative &quot;bu or the syllable de. Huillti may *be-come either huidelňi, &quot;can come backT^ or huibulai, <sup>,f</sup>can<sup>f</sup>t come back.<sup>11</sup> These two forms are called the potential forms of the verb; that is, the meaning <sup>f,</sup>can/be able to&quot; or &quot;cannot/unable to,<sup>f</sup> becomes part of the meaning of the compound. The following are examples of compound verbs of result and their potential forms•</p>
  893. <p>huilai &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;to come back</p>

  1394. <p>Notes on No. 2</p>
  1395. <p>Zai is the aspect marker for ongoing actions. It indicates that the action is in progress. The corresponding verb in the English translation</p>
  1396. <p>usually ends in -ing. Zai is used dynamic action. State and process action verbs may be used vith zai, to be used (e.g., ”sitting”).</p>
  1397. <p>Tā laide shihou, ni zai nian shū.</p>
  1398. <p>Tāmen zai kan diānyxng.</p>
  1399. <p>Tāmen zai he kāfēi.</p>
  1400. <p>Tāmen zai shang kě.</p>
  1401. <p>only with verbs which express actual verbs may not be used with zai. Many but some do not have enough &quot;action&quot;</p>
  1402. <p>When he came, you were studying.</p>
  1403. <p>They are watching a movie.</p>
  1404. <p>They are drinking coffee.</p>
  1405. <p>They are having class.</p>
  1406. <p>Zai is placed in front of the verb, unlike other aspect markers, such as le, guo, and de.</p>
  1407. <p>To make ongoing-action sentences negative, use bu, zai,use shi bu shi zai, zai. . .ma,or zai ~bu zai.</p>
  1408. <p>To form a question with</p>
  1409. <p>Xuěsheng zai shāng kě ma?</p>
  1410. <p>Tāmen &quot;bu zai shāng ke,yījīng zou le.</p>
  1411. <p>Tā laide shihou, ni shx bu shi zai nian shū?</p>
  1412. <p>Bu, bu zai niān shū, yījīng wanr qu le.</p>
  1413. <p>Tā zai bu zai kan diānshi?</p>
  1414. <p>Are the students having class?</p>
  1415. <p>They are not having class. They have already left.</p>
  1416. <p>Weren’t you studying when he came over?</p>
  1417. <p>No, I wasn’t studying. I had already gone out to play.</p>
  1418. <p>Is he vatching television?</p>
  1419. <p>The aspect marker zai and the aspect marker ne_ often occur in the same sentence, indicating absence of change.</p>

  1444. <p>Kāi hui, &quot;to meet,&quot; &quot;to hold a meeting,’<sup>1</sup> is an example of a ver&quot;b and its general object.</p>
  1445. <p>Kāivan, &quot;finish holding [the meeting]<sup>M</sup>: Wan is the vert ”to finish.<sup>ff</sup> It is used as an ending in a compound verb of result in No. 2.* Wān expresses the idea of &quot;over,&quot; ”up,” as in ”Class is over,&quot; ’’All the paper has been used up•”</p>
  1446. <p>But be careful: van is not used as a main verb when an object follows the verb. Instead of saying ’’finish this,&quot; using van by itself, you vould say ba zhěige chi van, ’’finish eating this”; ba zhěige zuovān, &quot;finish doing this”; or ba zhiige kanwān, ”finish reading this•”</p>
  1447. <p>Wan may sometimes be used as a main verb when there is no object, as in Di&amp;nying van le, &quot;The movie is finished.” But far more often v£n occurs as an ending which indicates result.</p>
  1448. <p>Dianhua (literally, ”electric speech&quot;) may mean either &quot;telephone&quot; or &quot;telephone call,</p>
  1449. <p>Hui dianhua, ”to return a phone call,&quot; &quot;to call &quot;back”: You have learned the verb hui, &quot;to return,” as in Nǐ shenme shihou huiqu? <sup>fT</sup>When are you going back?” In No. 2,hui takes a direct object,dianhua.

For example, W5 gěi ta jiqule liǎngbāo chayě means either &quot;I sent two packages of tea to Mm” or mailed^ut tvo ~ packages of tea for him.”</p>
  1458. <p>Dui is also translated as <sup>M</sup>to•” Dui introduces the target; gěi introduces the receiver. In other vords, dui expresses the intended direction but does not necessarily imply that the target is reached. Gěi usually implies receiving, as you might expect, since it means &quot;give&quot; as a full verb.</p>
  1459. <p>You use gei to indicate the receiver when you say</p>

  1991. <p>Xiage Xingq.Iliu means <sup>!l</sup>Saturday of next week.&quot; &quot;Saturday of this veek&quot; is zhěige Xīngqīliu, and ”Saturday of last week<sup>ff</sup> is shangge Xingglliu.*</p>
  1992. <p>Chi ge Ijiaiifan: Here the verb chi, &quot;to eat [something]takes the o~b.iect (yi)ge bianfan,<sup>n</sup>a simple/informal family meal. When talking about the general activity of eating, however, use chi vith the general object fan, literally &quot;(cooked) rice”: chī_f|n, <sup>,f</sup>to eat”</p>
  1993. <p>The word bianfan is used meal served in the home, of not &quot;being a banquet. dishes plus a soup.</p>
  1994. <p>as a modest description in inviting guests for a The meal is generally &quot;simple&quot; only in the sense A Chinese family meal usually consists of several</p>
  1995. <p>*The words ”this,” <sup>n</sup>next,” and last in English are often ambiguous. &quot;This&quot; sometimes means ”just past,” sometimes ”the coming,<sup>ff</sup> and sometimes &quot;of next week.<sup>M</sup> &quot;Next&quot; sometimes means &quot;the coming” and sometimes means &quot;of next week*” ’’Last” sometimes means ”Just past&quot; and sometimes means,’of last week•,’ In Chinese, however, zhěige usually means &quot;of this week&quot;; xiage,</p>
  1996. <p>”of next veek&quot;; and shangge, ^of last week.<sup>v</sup> But ambiguities do sometimes arise.</p>
  1997. <p>Some Chinese consider that the week begins on Sunday. Probably most Chinese, however, consider Monday the first day of the week.</p>

  2004. <p>Hěbx is a somewhat formal way of saying ”Why is it necessary to…?&quot;</p>
  2005. <p>He is a literary word for &quot;vhy.&quot; Bi is a literary word for ”must, (You may recognize it from bu ~bi, &quot;need not,” ”to be unnecessary.”)</p>
  2006. <p>Notice that the first speaker in exchange 2 does not respond to the dinner invitation vith an immediate <sup>,f</sup>Thank you, I would love to,&quot; as one might do in English.

  2630. <p>Section Chief Huang, Mrs. Huang--welcome.</p>
  2631. <p>Please come in.</p>
  2632. <p>How are you, Mrs. Franklin?</p>
  2633. <p>Here is a small token of appreciation.</p>
  2634. <p>Note on Nos. 1-2</p>
  2635. <p>Xiao yisi: You have already seen yisi in the expression you yisi, ”to be interesting, Yisi means ”meaning,” ”significance,” &quot;intention,&quot; &quot;idea•” In No. 2, above, xiao yisi (literally, &quot;small [good] intent&quot;) is an idiomatic expression meaning <sup>!T</sup>a small (token of my) feelings of appreciation.<sup>!t</sup></p>
  2636. <p>3. B: Wo zhīdao nin xīhuan shānshuī hua.</p>
  2637. <p>Tebiě qing pěngyou gei nin huale yizhāng.</p>

  2639. <p>A: Lai, wo gěi nimen jieshao jieshao.</p>
  2640. <p>I know you like landscape paintings.</p>
  2641. <p>工 asked a friend to paint one especially for you.</p>
  2642. <p>You are really too polite. Thanks.</p>
  2643. <p>Come. I'll introduce the two of you.</p>
  2644. <p>Notes on No. 3</p>
  2645. <p>Shānshuī, &quot;mountains and rivers,&quot; &quot;scenery with hills and water,&quot; is a compound made up of shān,&quot;mountain,&quot; and shuǐ, <sup>u</sup>water.<sup>l!</sup> In shānshuī,shul refers to rivers or lakes.</p>
  2646. <p>Těbiě qing pěngyou gěi nin huale yizhāng: Notice that the verb hua is followed by the completion marker le_. For this reason, the sentence means that the painting has been finished. The completed-action sense of huale might be captured by looser translations of the sentence, like ”1 asked a friend,and he painted one for you&quot; and <sup>T!</sup>I asked a friend, who painted one for you.</p>
  2647. <p>The sentence W5 těbiě q.ǐng pěngyou g§i nin hua yizhāng, without le,does not indicate whether the painting has been finished or not. The sentence might *be used when a speaker thinks that a paint ing has not yet &quot;been finished.</p>
  2648. <p>197</p>
  2649. <p>MTG, Unit U</p>
  2650. <p>Zhēn ahi tai kěqi、&quot;really too polite,” is a variation of Nin zhēn tili</p>
  2651. <p>Mat- Shi is sometimes used simply to fits the description that follows,</p>
  2652. <p>shov that the subject of a sentence</p>
  2653. <p>A: Zhěivei shi He Ji&amp;oshou, zEi Taida Jiāo Jīngjixuě.</p>
  2654. <p>A: He Jiiloshou, zhěiwei shi</p>
  2655. <p>Huang Kēzhǎng, zai Taiwan Ylnh£ng gōngzuo.</p>
  2656. <p>A: Zhěiwei shi H\xāng Taitai.</p>
  2657. <p>This is Professor Hollins, who teaches economics at Taiwan University.</p>
  2658. <p>Professor Hollins, this is Section Chief Hiiang, who works at the Bank of Taiwan.</p>
  2659. <p>This is Mrs. Huang.</p>
  2660. <p>Notes on No, 4</p>
  2661. <p>JieLoshSu, &quot;professor”: The first syllable in this vord means <sup>,f</sup>teaching.<sup>1</sup> Notice that the tone on Ji^o is different from the tone on the verb &quot;to teach,” Jiāo.</p>
  2662. <p>Tiidil is the abbreviation for Tlilvān Deixuě, &quot;Taiwan University.&quot;</p>
  2663. <p>Zhěivei ahi Hullng KēzhSng, zlli T&amp;ivān YlnhlLng gōngzuS looks like a run-on sentence, with the pronoun dropped from the second part of the sentence. In Chinese, this is a perfectly good way to add a second clause to a sentence. To characterize a person or thing just identified, the Chinese simply attach a descriptive sentence and omit the subject. You have already learned this pattern: Wěngfujlng Diljiē y5u yige XinhtUt Shūditn, h§n dl. Here are some additional examples:</p>
  2664. <p>Tā taitai shi R^běn rěn, &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;His wife is Japanese; she is in</p>
  2665. <p>xianzāi zai Shanghai * &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Sheuighǎi now.</p>
  2666. <p>Wo you yige pěngyou xlng W6, I have a friend named Wi who teaches zai DōnghUi D^xuě jiāo shū, at Dōnghǎi University. He is mlngnilln xiang dslo Měiguo q\i. planning to go to America next</p>

  2669. <p>MTG, Unit k</p>
  2670. <p>B: Jiǔyang, jiuyang.</p>
  2671. <p>B: Nin lUile duo jiǔ le? C: Jiǔyang. Wo gang lai liǎngge yuě.</p>
  2672. <p>Glad to meet you.</p>
  2673. <p>How long have you &quot;been here?</p>
  2674. <p>Glad to meet you. It has been only two months since I came.</p>
  2675. <p>Notes on No. 5</p>
  2676. <p>JiuySng means, literally, &quot;I have looked up to you for a long time&quot; or <sup>,f</sup>I have looked forward to meeting you•” It is used when meeting someone of higher status. Because jiuyang implies a status difference, the expression is not often used in the PRC.</p>
  2677. <p>Gang, &quot;only Just”: You have learned the sentence Wo laile liǎngge yuě le, <sup>,f</sup>I have been here two months now.” In the last sentence of exchange 5, notice that no le_ is needed. The focus has shifted from the coming to the shortness of the period; that is, the focus is on gang.</p>
  2678. <p>6. C: Hāi ySu hen duo bu shSuxide &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;There is still much I'm not familiar</p>
  2679. <p>difang. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;with.</p>
  2680. <p>C: Yihou hāi yao xiang nln &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Later I<sup>1</sup>11 need to request more</p>
  2681. <p>q.ǐngj iao. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;advice from you.</p>
  2682. <p>Notes on No, 6</p>
  2683. <p>Sh6\xxi,<sup>f,</sup>to be familiar [vith the details of something!],<sup>11</sup> is also pronounced shuxi.</p>
  2684. <p>Difang means <sup>ft</sup>areas,<sup>,f</sup> &quot;aspects&quot; (NOT &quot;places&quot;) in the first sentence of No. ^ Thus shouxide dīfang means &quot;areas/aspects one is familiar vith,</p>
  2685. <p>XiSng nin q.lngjiilo is a polite way of requesting advice from someone— for example, a teacher, an advisor, or a senior colleague. Here, the prepositional verb xieing means &quot;from.&quot; (You learned xiSng as &quot;towards” in the Directions Module.) Literally, it means &quot;facing. Less formally, you may also say gēn nin qlngjiSo. Qingjiao (literally, &quot;request instruction&quot;) may be reduplicated or used with an object in sentences like the following:</p>
  2686. <p>WS yao gēn nln qingj i^o &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I would like to consult with you</p>
  2687. <p>about something.</p>

  3163. <p>My name is Leclaire. I am the Commercial/Economics Officer from the French Embassy.</p>
  3164. <p>Wait a moment. I<sup>f</sup>ll see whether he is here or not.</p>
  3165. <p>Notes on No, 2</p>
  3166. <p>Nln shi nar a? is one polite way to ask who is calling. Nǎr asks for the name of the office or organization which the caller represents. You</p>
  3167. <p>*Bu is also used for a <sup>M</sup>department<sup>,f</sup> of the U.S. government: NeiahěnK'bu, <sup>Tl</sup>Department of the Interior”</p>
  3168. <p>212</p>
  3169. <p>MTG, Unit 5</p>
  3170. <p>may also say Nl nar a? To ask for the caller<sup>f</sup>s name, use Qīngwěn ńl shi.. or Qǐngvěn nl guixlng?</p>
  3171. <p>Fǎguo: In the PRC, the word for ”France<sup>1</sup>’ usually has a low tone instead of a falling tone (Faguo) •</p>
  3172. <p>The syllable -guān means <sup>,f</sup>government official,&quot; &quot;officeror &quot;officeholder •<sup>M</sup></p>
  3173. <p>Tā zai bu zai: Zai means ”to be present&quot; here. With this meaning, zai does not have to be followed by a place word.</p>
  3174. <p>3. B: Wěi, tā zhěihuir bu zai.</p>
  3175. <p>Nin yāo liū ge huār ma?</p>
  3176. <p>A: Laojiā, tā hullaide shihou, nln qīng ta gěi wo dǎ ge dianhua.</p>
  3177. <p>Hello. He is not here at the moment.</p>
  3178. <p>Would you like to leave a message? When he comes back, please ask him to give me a phone call.</p>
  3179. <p>Notes on No. 3</p>
  3180. <p>Zhěihuǐr is a colloquial word for &quot;now,” ”at the moment.<sup>!T</sup> The word is made up of zhě plus yihuǐr• Its position preceding the verb shows that it refers to a point in time.</p>
  3181. <p>Liū ge huar: Liū means ” to leave C something/someone 13 behind. <sup>M</sup> Huar <sub>9</sub> translated in exchange 3 as &quot;message,,<sup>1</sup> is the word for &quot;speed<sup>11</sup> Directly following a verb (in this case,liu),the £Ī_ of unstressed yige may be omitted.</p>
  3182. <p>k. B: Hǎo, qīng nin bǎ nxnde dianhua haomar gaosong wǒ. Wc xiěxiālai.</p>
  3183. <p>A: Wode dianhua shi wǔ ěr yāo-sān sān yāo.</p>
  3184. <p>All right. Please tell me your phone number. 工*11 vrite it dovn.</p>
  3185. <p>Ify phone number is 521-331-</p>
  3186. <p>Notes on No.</p>
  3187. <p>Haomǎr is used for &quot;nuinber<sup>1</sup> as a passport number. (Shumu,</p>
  3188. <p>in speaking of identification numbers such &quot;number,<sup>ff</sup> expresses an amount.)</p>
  3189. <p>213</p>
  3190. <p>MTG, Unit 5</p>
  3191. <p>Yāo is used in Běijīng for giving room numbers and telephone numbers whenever those numbers are given orally.</p>
  3192. <p>Xiěxialai is a compound verb which is formed like nāxialai• However, while naxialai literally means ”to bring down and towards the speaker,<sup>11</sup> xiěxialai does NOT mean &quot;to write in a downward direction towards the</p>
  3193. <p>speaker.&quot; The compound xiěxialai corresponds to the English idiom <sup>ff</sup>to write down.&quot;</p>
  3194. <p>Qǐng nln bǎ nlnde dianhua haomǎr gaosong vo illustrates some of the rules concerning the use of the prepositional verb bǎ. (Read the Transportation Module notes on ta.)</p>
  3195. <p>Ba is a prepositional verb used to bring the direct object of a sentence to a position preceding the main verb. To do so has certain effects on the meaning of a sentence. There are reasons why must be used, why it may not be used,and why it is optional in different kinds of sentences.</p>
  3196. <p>In the first sentence of exchange h, the use of the bǎ construction is optional. You may also say Qing ni gaosong vo ninde di&amp;nh\xa heU^mar. The sentence fulfills the requirements for the optional use of bǎ but has none of the features which make the use of ba a necessity. Let's look more closely at these different requirements and features.</p>
  3197. <p>a. What conditions are necessary for the use of bǎ?</p>
  3198. <p>(1) The object of ba must be acted on. In other words, the action must be performed on the object of ba. In the first sentence of exchange 紅, nlnde dianhua haomar undergoes the action gāosong« More obvious examples are</p>

  3273. <p>c. When car^t b&amp; be used?</p>
  3274. <p>B&amp; cannot normally be used in a sentence if the vert is not an action ver*b, if the verb describes perception (like kSnjian and ting jian), if the object is not the under goer of the action, if the object is indefinite,</p>
  3275. <p>or if the verb is a simple verb, which bS cannot be used:</p>

  3288. <p>I know of this matter.</p>
  3289. <p>(zhīdao NOT ACTION VERB)</p>
  3290. <p>What is the motivation for using ~bS?</p>
  3291. <p>Ba is used when the verb phrase gives more new important informa-the object does. The Chinese prefer to place that important verb _ &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;final position in a sentence, where the phrase vill be prominent•</p>
  3292. <p>BS performs the function of taking the obj ect out of the way (to the &quot;beginning of a sentence) and allowing the verb phrase to have its full impact.</p>
  3293. <p>e. To make a tS sentence negative, place the negative adverb in front of *bS (NOT in front of the main verb).</p>

  3311. <p>Gāngcai means &quot;Just now,” ”a short time ago. It may, like other time words, either precede or follow the subject of a sentence.</p>

  3313. <p>Gāngcai tā gěi vo dS diSjahueL le.</p>
  3314. <p>The one-syllable adverb gāng, ”Just,” always follows the subject of a sentence,</p>
  3315. <p>Tā gāng gěi wo dǎ dianhu^. He just called me.</p>
  3316. <p>Ni gangclti gei vo da diitohiiil, vS bti zlti, literally, &quot;You called me Just now, I wasn^ in&quot;: To the first clause (Ni gāngcii gěi vo dS diiinhiicL), you could add -de shihou&gt; &quot;when.&quot; Even without -de shihou, the relationship between the two clauses is still very close. Colloquially, no pause is needed between them. Here is a similar sentence:</p>
  3317. <p>Gāngclli wo qň zhao ni,nī &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I Just went to look for you, but you</p>
  3318. <p>Tdu zili. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;weren^t there,</p>
  3319. <p>Něitiān literally means &quot;that day.” It is the Chinese equivalent of &quot;the other day.<sup>11</sup></p>
  3320. <p>Yuēhao is a compound verb of result: yuē, <sup>,f</sup>to arrange a meet ing,<sup>tf f,</sup>to make an appointment,” plus hao, ”successfully complete•”</p>
  3321. <p>Gēn means <sup>n</sup>with<sup>,T</sup> in the last sentence of exchange 5.</p>
  3322. <p>Betogōngshi: Bangōng (literally, &quot;manage work<sup>11</sup>) is frequently used for <sup>,!</sup>do work in an office. A bangōngshl is a room where office vork is done, or an &quot;office.<sup>n</sup></p>

  3338. <p>Notes on No.</p>
  3339. <p>Yao Jin means ’’to be urgent,’<sup>T</sup> ” to be important,</p>
  3340. <p>YInvei,. .su6yi: When the first part of an English sentence begins with the vord ’’because,” it is usually considered redundant to begin the second part with &quot;therefore.<sup>n</sup> Thus the Chinese word suoyi,<sup>,!</sup>therefore,<sup>,!</sup> in the first sentence of exchange 6,is not translated into English. In Chinese, however, suoyi is commonly used after a clause &quot;beginning with ylnvei,<sup>n</sup>be-cause.”</p>
  3341. <p>The verbs gai and huiUi are both frequently translated as ”to change.&quot; GSi means <sup>ff</sup>change&quot; in the sense of <sup>f,</sup>alter ,<sup>fT</sup> and hu§n means ”change&quot; in the sense of ’’exchange.’,</p>
  3342. <p>Gǎi dāo xillvǔ, &quot;change (it) to the afternoon&quot;: In this phrase, the prepositional ver*b āko and its obj ect xiavǔ do not precede the verb; they follow the vert. A d&amp;o, <sup>n</sup>to,<sup>fl</sup> phrase which precedes the main verb in a sentence can be a scene setter, that is, you go &quot;to” a place and the action takes place there. Following the main verb in a sentence, a dao phrase can indicate where something ends up as a result of the action. In the first sentence of exchange 6, the appointment vill END UP in the afternoon. Here are some examples of dao phrases:</p>
  3343. <p>Tā dao c在ishichǎng mǎi cai qu le.</p>
  3344. <p>Wo gāngcai dāo wǔl6u zhǎo Chen Taitai qu le.</p>

  3828. <p>(STATE VERB) be used to make a comparison:</p>
  3829. <p>Which of these two &quot;books is more expensive?</p>
  3830. <p>For each of the three patterns above (MORE—LESS—EQUAL), the comparison is made with a STATE vert. State verbs include adjectival verbs (h5o, ”to be good”),auxiliary verbs (hui,”to know how to,<sup>!f</sup> ”can”),and verbs describing mental attitudes or situations (zhīdao, <sup>!?</sup>to knov”; xīhuan,<sup>,f</sup>to like”; ai,</p>

  3836. <p>You know more about this than he does.</p>
  3837. <p>He doesnH like to see movies as much as I do.</p>
  3838. <p>Although the verb phrase begins with a state verb, that may not be the only word in the comparison• It may &quot;be expanded to include other verbs (any type) and objects.</p>
  3839. <p>The things being compared may also be expanded, placed in the slots for things compared:</p>
  3840. <p>Whole sentences may &quot;be</p>
  3841. <p>Zuo huoche měiyou zuo fēijl nlme kuili.</p>

  3848. <p>He is a better talker (smoother talker) than his older brother.</p>
  3849. <p>This pattern may also be expanded to indicate just HOW MUCH more one thing is than another. (Place the amount after the verb in a sentence.)</p>

  3869. <p>The affirmative pattern • • ,y5u, • •nSme + state verb is ambiguous: it says that one item is AT LEAST AS expensive as another item, which is either equally expensive or less expensive. This pattern is not as common as ••.měiyou*••n&amp;me + state verb.</p>
  3870. <p>The adverbs gěng, &quot;even more,” and zu|_, <sup>f,</sup>most ,<sup>,f</sup> are easily used to compare more than two things• (Place these adverbs before the verb in a sentence.)</p>

  3874. <p>The first book is more expensive than that one, but the third one is the most expensive.</p>

  3884. <p>Notes on No. k</p>
  3885. <p>B立 hao yisi is an idiomatic phrase meaning &quot;to be embarrassing.<sup>11</sup> In Chinese culture, treating someone to a meal both shows your respect for him and maintains your status as a generous host. In exchange h<sub>9</sub> Na bū hao yisi means ”I,m embarrassed to have you show me so much respect,” or &quot;I’m em-barrassed to appear to be too cheap to treat you.” B\i hǎo yisi also means &quot;to feel embarrassed.<sup>ft</sup></p>
