- Often <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">hěn</foreignphrase> adds

- little or nothing to the intensity of the adjectival verb, and doesn't need

- translate the <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">hěn</foreignphrase>

- <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">chuān</foreignphrase>: “to put
|
|
|
- on, to don” (clothes, shoes) Notice that Chinese uses an action verb, “to
|
|
|
- put on,” where English uses a state verb, “to wear.” You have to adjust your
|
|
|
- thinking a bit in order to use this verb correctly. When you want to say
|
|
|
- “She's NOT WEARING her coat,” you actually say “She DIDN'T PUT ON her coat,”

|
|
|
- <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">jiǎn</foreignphrase>: “to cut
|
|
|
- (with a scissors), to clip, to trim” Chinese has several different words for
|
|
|
- English “to cut” depending on the method of cutting. <foreignphrase
|
|
|
- xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Jiǎn</foreignphrase> only refers to cutting

- with a scissors or clipper.</para>

|
|
|
- <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">liǎngbiān</foreignphrase>: “two
|
|

- sides, both sides” In English it is enough to say just “the sides” and to
|
|
|
- add “two” or “both” seems superfluous, but <foreignphrase
|
|
|
- xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">liǎng</foreignphrase> is necessary in
|
|
|
- Chinese. Perhaps this is because Chinese has no way of indicating plural, as
|
|

|
|
|
- <para>Gòu duǎn le: “it's short enough now” There are two things to notice in
|
|
|
- this short sentence: (1) In English we say “short enough,” but in Chinese
|
|
|
- you say literally “enough short”; in other words, gòu is used as an adverb
|
|
|
- to modify the adjectival verb <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
- >duǎn</foreignphrase>. (2) le here indicates a new state of affairs:
|
|
|
- before, the hair wasn't short enough, but now it is. Thus le can be rendered
|
|
|
- into English by the word “now.”</para>
|
|
|
- <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">xǐ tóu</foreignphrase>: “to wash
|
|
|
- the hair” <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Tóu</foreignphrase> is
|
|
|
- literally “head,” but in many cases actually refers to the hair. In most
|
|
|
- Chinese barbershops a shampoo after the haircut is standard procedure, and
|
|
|
- you would not have to specify that you want one. (<foreignphrase
|
|
|
- xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Xǐ tóu</foreignphrase> is translated as “to
|
|
|
- shampoo.” Liquid shampoo is called <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
- >xǐfàjīng</foreignphrase>, “wash-hair-essence.”)</para>
|
|
|
- <para>Notice that <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Wǒ yào xǐ
|
|
|
- tóu</foreignphrase> has been translated idiomatically as “I want a
|
|
|
- shampoo,” although literally <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">xǐ
|
|
|
- tóu</foreignphrase> is a verb-object “to wash the head.” Many Chinese
|
|
|
- phrases made up of a verb plus object are ambiguous as to who performs the
|
|
|
- action. You might have been tempted to translate <foreignphrase
|
|
|
- xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Wǒ yào xǐ tóu</foreignphrase> as “I want to
|
|
|
- wash the hair,” but in this context the sentence actually means “I want to
|
|
|
- have (my) hair washed,” that is, by someone else (the barber). The context
|
|
|
- should tell you which meaning is intended. Another example:<informaltable

|
|
|
- <para>When <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">gěi</foreignphrase> comes
|
|
|
- after the verb, it can mean either “to give” or “for, let.” For example,
|
|
|
- <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Bǎ nèiběn shǔ náchulai gěi wo
|
|
|
- kànkan</foreignphrase> could mean either “Take out the book and
|
|
|
- (actually) give it to me to look at,” OR “Take out the book for me to see
|
|
|
- (show it to me, not necessarily hand it to me).” The context will help you
|
|
|
- decide which is meant; often, only one will make sense.</para>
|
|
|
- <para>CAUTION: Although <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
- >gěi</foreignphrase> is sometimes idiomatically translated as “to let,”
|
|
|
- you should not take this to mean that English “to let” may always be
|
|
|
- translated into Chinese with <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
- >gěi</foreignphrase>. There is a very limited correspondence between
|
|
|
- “let” and <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">gěi</foreignphrase>.
|
|
|
- Usually you will translate “to let” as <foreignphrase

- practice of traditional (but not necessarily orthodox) Chinese medicine
|
|
|
- where parts of the body are pierced with needles to treat disease or relieve
|
|
|
- pain. This is based on the idea that the body's energy (qì) forms an

|
- integral system which must be maintained for good health. This is done by
|
|
|
- applying pressure or releasing pressure to restore the balance of qì.
|
|
|
- Moxibustion (traditionally more important than acupuncture) involves the
|
|
|
- smoldering of herbs on certain body points. In some cases the herbs are
|
|
|
- placed directly on the skin and lit with a stick of incense; at other times,
|
|

- a slice of ginger is first placed on the skin and the herbs burned on

|
- <para>For example, in the case of <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">zhào

|
|
|
- xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Wǒ qù zhào xiàng</foreignphrase>, “I am going

|
|
|
- xiàng</foreignphrase>, meaning “I am going to have my picture
|
|
|
- taken.”</para>
|
|
|
- <para>The fact that such sentences may mean either of two things rarely causes

|
|
|
+ <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">jiǎn</foreignphrase>: “to cut
|
|
|
+ (with a scissors), to clip, to trim” Chinese has several different words for
|
|
|
+ English “to cut” depending on the method of cutting. <foreignphrase
|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Jiǎn</foreignphrase> only refers to cutting
|
|
|
+ with a scissors or clipper.</para>
|
|
|
+ <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">bú yào</foreignphrase>: “don't”
|
|
|
+ In Transportation Module, Un t 3, you learned <foreignphrase
|
|

+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">bié</foreignphrase> for “don't” in negative
|
|
|
+ commands. <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Bú yào</foreignphrase>
|
|
|
+ means the same thing.</para>
|
|
|
+ <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">liǎngbiān</foreignphrase>: “two
|
|
|
+ sides, both sides” In English it is enough to say just “the sides” and to
|
|
|
+ add “two” or “both” seems superfluous, but <foreignphrase
|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">liǎng</foreignphrase> is necessary in
|
|
|
+ Chinese. Perhaps this is because Chinese has no way of indicating plural, as
|
|
|
+ does the s in English, “the sides.”</para>
|
|
|
+ <para>Gòu duǎn le: “it's short enough now” There are two things to notice in
|
|
|
+ this short sentence: (1) In English we say “short enough,” but in Chinese
|
|
|
+ you say literally “enough short”; in other words, gòu is used as an adverb
|
|
|
+ to modify the adjectival verb <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
+ >duǎn</foreignphrase>. (2) le here indicates a new state of affairs:
|
|
|
+ before, the hair wasn't short enough, but now it is. Thus le can be rendered
|
|
|
+ into English by the word “now.”</para>
|
|
|
+ <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">xǐ tóu</foreignphrase>: “to wash
|
|
|
+ the hair” <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Tóu</foreignphrase> is
|
|
|
+ literally “head,” but in many cases actually refers to the hair. In most
|
|
|
+ Chinese barbershops a shampoo after the haircut is standard procedure, and
|
|
|
+ you would not have to specify that you want one. (<foreignphrase
|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Xǐ tóu</foreignphrase> is translated as “to
|
|
|
+ shampoo.” Liquid shampoo is called <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
+ >xǐfàjīng</foreignphrase>, “wash-hair-essence.”)</para>
|
|
|
+ <para>Notice that <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Wǒ yào xǐ
|
|
|
+ tóu</foreignphrase> has been translated idiomatically as “I want a
|
|
|
+ shampoo,” although literally <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">xǐ
|
|
|
+ tóu</foreignphrase> is a verb-object “to wash the head.” Many Chinese
|
|
|
+ phrases made up of a verb plus object are ambiguous as to who performs the
|
|
|
+ action. You might have been tempted to translate <foreignphrase
|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Wǒ yào xǐ tóu</foreignphrase> as “I want to
|
|
|
+ wash the hair,” but in this context the sentence actually means “I want to
|
|
|
+ have (my) hair washed,” that is, by someone else (the barber). The context
|
|
|
+ should tell you which meaning is intended. Another example:<informaltable

|
+ <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">tàng tóufa</foreignphrase>: “to
|
|
|

|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">tàng</foreignphrase> for “to get a permanent”
|
|
|
+ has an interesting background and shows how Chinese adapts words already in
|
|
|
+ the language rather than borrow from other languages. <foreignphrase
|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Tàng</foreignphrase> originally meant (and
|
|
|
+ still does) “to scald” or “to apply heat to” something. For example,
|
|
|
+ <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">tàng yīfu
|
|
|
+ </foreignphrase>means “to iron clothes.” The earliest methods for giving a
|
|
|
+ permanent wave used heated curlers; in fact, today in <foreignphrase
|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Běijīng</foreignphrase> (as in other parts of
|
|
|
+ the world) electrically heated curlers are still used in one type of
|
|
|
+ permanent called <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">diàn
|
|
|
+ tàng</foreignphrase>, “electric permanent.” After the introduction of
|
|
|
+ chemical permanents, the verb <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
+ >tàng</foreignphrase> continued to be used, even though no heat is
|
|
|
+ applied in the new process. Chemical permanents are called <foreignphrase
|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">lěng tàng</foreignphrase>, “cold
|
|
|
+ permanent.”</para>
|
|
|
+ <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">juǎn</foreignphrase>: “to curl,
|
|
|
+ to roll up” You will find this verb used in many contexts, not Just in the
|
|
|
+ area of hair styling. It is the all-purpose word for rolling or curling
|
|
|
+ ribbons, paper, pastry, and building materials. [Curly hair is
|
|
|
+ <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">juǎnfà</foreignphrase>,

|
|
|
+ “to blow, to puff” and <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
+ >gān</foreignphrase> is the adjectival verb “to be dry.” These two verbs
|
|
|
+ used together to form a compound which indicates both the action and the
|
|
|
+ result: “to blow until dry” or “to blow with the result that (something)
|
|

|

|
|
|
+ English word “blow-dry,” look as if they are exactly parallel, but they are
|
|
|
+ not. In English you can leave off the word “blow” and just say “to dry
|
|
|
+ someone's hair,” whereas in Chinese you cannot use <foreignphrase
|
|
|
+ xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">gān</foreignphrase> to mean the action of
|
|
|
+ drying something, only the state of being dry. You always need to use
|
|
|
+ another verb with <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
+ >gān</foreignphrase> in order to tell the action which caused the
|
|
|
+ drying. For example, <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
|
|
|
+ >cāgān</foreignphrase> means “to wipe (something) dry.”</para>
