- <p>Certain "psychological verbs" related to feelings or emotional sates can be modified with <span class="hanzi">很</span> <span class="pinyin">hěn</span> to increase their intensity. This is similar to using "really" or "very much" in English. Remember that this only applies to psychological verbs, such as:</p>
- <ul>
- <li><span class="hanzi">想</span> <br/> <span class="pinyin">xiǎng</span> <br/> to think; to want; to miss</li>
- <li><span class="hanzi">喜欢</span> <br/> <span class="pinyin">xǐhuan</span> <br/> to like</li>
- <li><span class="hanzi">小心</span> <br/> <span class="pinyin">xiǎoxīn</span> <br/> to be careful</li>
- <li><span class="hanzi">怕</span> <br/> <span class="pinyin">pà</span> <br/> to fear; to be afraid of</li>
