Purpose: When
, “to come,” is followed by another verb, the second verb expresses the purpose of the subject’s coming. The “purpose of coming” may be emphasized by the construction, with the marker before the verb .I came to study. |
: by itself means “to read aloud.” When followed by an object, the expression means “to study.” is “book(s),” but simply means “to study.” is used as a general object, standing for whatever is being studied.
: When you are talking about studying a particular subject, is followed by the name of that subject rather than by the general object .
To have the meaning “to study,”
must be followed by either the general object or a specific object such as the name of a subject.Verb types:
, “to do,” and , “to study,” are action verbs. Both are made negative with bu when referring to actions not yet finished Both may take completion or its negative .He doesn’t study. | |
He didn’t study. | |
He has already studied. |

6. | A: | 請問,你學過英文嗎? | May I ask, have you ever studied English? | |

, “to study” an action verb): You will recognize from the word for “student,” . may refer to acquiring either knowledge or a skill. For example, you can history, economics, a language, piano, and tennis. On the other hand, is used for “study” in the sense of taking a course or courses in a field of knowledge. is not used for a skill.
In some contexts, the verb
means “to learn.” The following sentence may be interpreted two ways, depending on the situation.I learned it in America.(e.g., how to use chopsticks) | |
OR | |
I studied it in America. (e.g., the Chinese language) |
is used for either the Chinese spoken language or the written language, including literature. In general, use for “learning” to speak Chinese and for “studying” Chinese literature.
17.2.3.4 Notes on №7–8
7. | A: | 請問,你會説英文嗎? | May I ask, can you speak English? | |
B: | 我會説一點。 | I can speak a little. | ||
8. | A: | 你太太也會説中國話嗎? | Can tour wife speak Chinese too? | |
B: | 不會,她不會説。 | No, she can’t. |
, “to know how to,” “can,” is an auxiliary verb. It is used before the main verb to express an attitude toward the action or to express the potential of action. , “to want to,” “would like to,” is also an auxiliary verb. “Should,” “must,” and “may” are other examples of auxiliary verbs. All auxiliary verbs in Chinese are state verbs, which means that is always used to make them negative. Auxiliary verbs never take the aspect marker for completed action, regardless of whether you are talking about past, present, or future.
He couldn’t speak English last year. |
When the marker
is used, it is the aspect marker for new situations.
Last year he couldn’t speak English, but now he can. |
, “I can speak a little”: The word , literally “a dot,” functions as a noun. It is used in a sentence to mean “a little bit” where a noun object, such as , “English,” might be used.
may not be used directly after an auxiliary verb, which must be followed by another verb.
, “to speak,” “to talk,” is another example of a verb which must always have an object. must be followed by either:
the general object
, “words,” in which case the meaning of is simply “to speak,” “to talk,” as in:He hasn’t yet spoken. OR
a specific object such as the name of a language.
: The short yes/no answer to a question containing the auxiliary verb is formed with rather than with the main verb.
: This expression refers only to the spoken language, in contrast to , which refers to both the spoken and written language.
17.2.3.5 Notes on №9
9. | A: | 你的中國話很好。 | Your Chinese is very good. | |
B: | 哪裏,哪裏。我就説一點。 | Not at all, not at all. I can speak only a little. |
Literally,
means “where.” As a reply to a compliment, we have translated as “not at all.” In China, it has traditionally been considered proper and a matter of course to deny any compliment received, no matter how much truth there is to it. Many people still regard “thank you,” as an immodest reply to a compliment, since that would amount to agreeing that the compliment was completely correct., “only”: As was noted in Unit 3, notes on Nos. 8–9, meaning “only” is not as widely understood as . The last sentence in exchange 9 could Just as well be .
17.2.3.6 Notes on №10–11
11. | A: | 你是在大學學的英文嗎? | Did you study English at college? | |
B: | 是的,我是在臺灣大學學的英文。 | Yes, I studied English at Taiwan University. |
In the Peking dialect of Standard Chinese, which is the model for grammatical patterns presented in this course, the
of a construction comes between the verb and its object. The object, therefore, is outside the construction. Compare “I studied here” with “I studied English here”:However, you may hear some Standard Chinese speakers who place the object inside the
construction.17.3 Drills
