- <p>Sometimes you may do something or experience something that you never ever want to do again. How do we express that in Chinese? One of the ways is to use 再也不 (zàiyěbù)!</p>
- <h2 id="using-再也-with-不">Using 再也 with 不</h2>
- <h3 id="structure">Structure</h3>
- <p>To express that something will never be done again, or never happen again, you can use this structure:</p>
- <div class="jiegou">
- <p>Subj. + 再也 + 不 + Verb-Obj. + 了</p>
- </div>
- <p>Notice that 了 is used - in this case it's <a href="Change_of_state_with_"le"" title="wikilink">sentence 了</a>. This is because <em>it is now the case that</em> the action will not be done. It usually indicates some kind of determination or decision.</p>
