rewind the tape and work on them some more.

00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,000
you should begin learning how to say them.

45
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,000
Listen to this first exchange.

46
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Karl Matthews and Chen Da Gang

你今天還有課嗎?

沒有課了

00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,000
Repeat the word for class.

00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,000

54
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,000

00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,160
never occurred with the marker l'er

64
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,960
or that is true for most verbs

65
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,080
the verb yo is an exception

66
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,440
other verbs negated with bu occur with new situation l'er

67
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,640
to give the idea of not anymore

68
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,240
or punien hula

69
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,640
I'm not going to study anymore

70
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,880
since the verb yo never takes the negative prefix bu

71
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,760
you hear the prefix me along with the marker l'er

72
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,120
an expression such as me or l'er

73
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,040
there is no more

74
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:58,160
how do you say

75
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:03,480
I don't have any more classes

76
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,880
没有课了

77
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,040
how would you say

78
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:13,520
he's not coming anymore

79
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,520
他不来了

80
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,720
how would you say

81
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:24,920
she's not going to study anymore

82
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,080
他不念书了

83
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,800
proresponding in the exchange yourself now

84
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,400
when asked if you have any more classes

85
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,480
answer that you don't

86
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:40,520
你今天还有课吗

87
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,200
没有课了

88
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,720
again

89
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:50,200
你今天还有课吗

90
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,400
没有课了

91
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:58,160
since claire matthews and chuan dagang have the rest of the day free

92
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,360
they are going to visit the palace museum

93
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,560
on the ride out to the museum they talk

94
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,000
你从前念英文念了多久

95
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,920
我念英文念了六年

96
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,600
when you want to ask someone how long they did something

97
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,040
you first state the activity you're asking about

98
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,640
then you repeat the verb and ask how long

99
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:19,640
repeat

100
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,760
how long did you study English

101
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:29,880
你念英文念了多久

102
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:34,760
你念英文念了多久

103
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,920
notice that any aspect marker such as the marker lower for completed action

104
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,240
follows the second verb in the question

105
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,520
repeat again

106
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,960

00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:57,920
你念英文念了多久

109
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,920
if you want to make it even more clear that you're asking about a completed action here

110
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,120
you can add the adverb从前

111
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,880
formerly or in the past

112
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:06,840
repeat

113
00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:09,800
how long did you study English

114
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:18,080
你从前念英文念了多久

115
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:24,760
你从前念英文念了多久

116
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,040
notice that any adverb of time such as从前

117
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,880
comes before the first verb in the sentence

118
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,040
try asking the question yourself now

119
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:42,280
ask how long did you study English

120
00:06:42,280 --> 00:06:46,080

00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,720

131
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:38,040
我念法文呢

132
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:42,280
the marker no is used to indicate an ongoing activity

133
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,640
take the part of Tan Da Gang and answer the question

134
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,080

你念法文念了多久了

147
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,080
in this question you're asking about the duration of an ongoing action

148
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,400
you've seen this before in questions such as

149
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,160
你来了多久了

150
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,280
where the marker law for completed action follows the verb

151
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,840
and the marker law for new situations comes at the end of the sentence

152
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,400
repeat the question again

153
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,800

196
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:37,320
你会写中国字吗

197
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:44,160
as an auxiliary verb 会 can comes before the main verb 写 to write

198
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:45,800
try asking the question yourself now

199
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,360
you'll get a reply

200
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:53,320

现在我会写一点了

209
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:22,320
repeat

210
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,000
last year I couldn't write them

211
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:31,880
去年我还不会写

212
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:38,480
去年我还不会写

213
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,000
notice that even though you're talking about something that happened last year

214
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,200
the negative mark of 不 is used

215
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:48,400
as a state verb 会 can only be negated with 不

216
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:49,680
repeat again

217
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:54,080

去年我还不会写

219
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,480
notice also the use of the adverb 还

220
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,560
which can mean yet

221
00:14:07,560 --> 00:14:11,080
the adverb 还 is used in this sentence to emphasize the fact that

222
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,840
even last year she couldn't yet write Chinese

223
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,320
the use of 还

224
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,920
like the use of  yet in English

225
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,480
leaves you expecting some change in the situation

226
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:21,760
how do you say

227
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:27,880
last year I couldn't write them

228
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:32,760

231
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:44,240
现在我会写一点了

232

现在我会写一点了

233
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,040
the marker learned in this sentence is the new situation marker

234
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,520
signaling the change in her learning to write Chinese characters

235
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:04,080
the marker learned for new situations always goes at the end of the sentence

236
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,640
repeat again

237
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,720

00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,760
notice that there is no equivalent of the word them in the Chinese sentence

241
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,120
you're actually saying

242
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:25,920
now I can write a little bit

243
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,480
the contact makes it clear that you're referring to Chinese characters

244
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,720
how do you say

245
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:37,800

say that he's a naval officer

307
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:06,800

how do you say naval officer

319
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:50,880
海军军官

320
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,360
a couple of days later

00:19:52,360 --> 00:19:53,400
陈大刚

322
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:58,160
call clare to say that he won't be in class

我病了

325
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,840
repeat the verb to get sick

326
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,920

病

329
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:18,840
the verb 病 to get sick is a process verb

330
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:23,440
as the name implies a process verb describes change from one state to another

331
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,520
like the change from raw to cooked

332
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,080
or the change from frozen to thawed

333
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,560
here the change is from healthy to ill

334
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,120
repeat I'm sick

335
00:20:32,120 --> 00:20:33,400
or more literally

我病了

339
00:20:43,120 --> 00:20:46,640
the marker lure in this sentence signals the completion of the process

340
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,240
that is he's no longer just coming down with something he's got it

341
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:55,320
how do you say I'm sick

342
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,440

我今天不来了

345
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:12,040
我今天不来了

346
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,600
notice the use of the marker lure for new situation to indicate that there's a change

347
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,920
the change is in his usual routine

348
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,400
today he won't be coming to school

349
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,200
repeat I'm not coming today

350
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,240

我病了

355
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,600
try saying it ahead of the speaker

356
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:44,720
I'm not coming today

357
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:50,840

358
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,720
我今天不来了

359
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:59,240
我病了

360
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:00,600
a day or two later

361
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,600
程大刚 is back at school

362
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,000
he talks with Clara

363
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:06,880
今天好了没有

364
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,080

365
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:16,240
repeat are you better today

366
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:21,920
今天好了没有

367
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,720
今天好了没有

368
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:29,160
here the verb how is the process verb to get better to become well

369
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,000
not the state verb to be good or well

370
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,760
as a process verb how can occur with combined look

371
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,200
which shows both that the process is completed

372
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,840
and that a new situation has occurred

373
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,200
repeat again

374
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,560
are you better today

375
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:50,120
今天好了没有

376
00:22:50,120 --> 00:22:54,320
今天好了没有

377
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,360
notice that the question here is formed using

378
00:22:56,360 --> 00:22:58,200
mail not ma

379
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,680
this can be done whenever the sentence includes a marker

380
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,560
lure for completed action

381
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:09,520
how do you say are you better today

382
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:15,920
