00:00.000 --> 00:03.000
Standard Chinese, a modular approach.

00:03.000 --> 00:09.000
Biographic Information Module Unit 6, comprehension, Tape 1.

00:09.000 --> 00:12.000
This unit is set in the ROC.

00:12.000 --> 00:15.000
In the last two units, we took up questions of when.

00:15.000 --> 00:20.000
On this tape, you'll learn to understand questions and answers about how long.

00:20.000 --> 00:26.000
Let's listen in as Mrs. Ooyang asks Mr. King, the Foreign Service Officer, about his plans.

00:26.000 --> 00:29.000
How long will you stay?

00:29.000 --> 00:33.000
你住多久?

00:33.000 --> 00:35.000
I'm staying one year.

00:35.000 --> 00:40.000
我住一年.

00:40.000 --> 00:43.000
Here's the verb to stay or to live.

00:43.000 --> 00:47.000
住.

00:47.000 --> 00:51.000
You've had the verb 住 followed by 再 as a place word.

00:51.000 --> 00:55.000
In these sentences, it's followed by a duration phrase.

00:55.000 --> 00:57.000
Here's how you say how long.

00:57.000 --> 01:02.000
多久?

01:02.000 --> 01:08.000
You'll recognize the word 多, meaning how, as in 多大, how old?

01:08.000 --> 01:12.000
The word 久 means long in the sense of duration.

01:12.000 --> 01:18.000
Word for word, then, the question 你住多久 is, you stay how long?

01:18.000 --> 01:21.000
Listen to the answer again.

01:21.000 --> 01:23.000
I'm staying one year.

01:23.000 --> 01:26.000
我住一年.

01:26.000 --> 01:29.000
我住一年.

01:29.000 --> 01:32.000
Here's how you say one year.

01:32.000 --> 01:37.000
一年,一年,一年.

01:37.000 --> 01:41.000
When telling how many years, no counter is used.

01:41.000 --> 01:47.000
Notice that the tone on one becomes flowing before the rising tone of 年.

01:47.000 --> 01:49.000
一年.

01:49.000 --> 01:52.000
Here's the exchange again.

01:52.000 --> 01:54.000
How long are you staying?

01:54.000 --> 01:57.000
你住多久?

01:57.000 --> 01:59.000
I'm staying one year.

01:59.000 --> 02:01.000
我住一年.

02:01.000 --> 02:03.000
我住一年.

02:03.000 --> 02:12.000
Notice that 多久, how long, and the duration expressions that answer it, like 一年, one year, come after the verb.

02:12.000 --> 02:19.000
You'll remember that when 什么时候, and the time expressions which answer it, come before the verb.

02:19.000 --> 02:21.000
Listen to the exchange again.

02:21.000 --> 02:26.000
You're alive. 你住多久?我住一年.

02:26.000 --> 02:30.000
Again, 你住多久?我住一年.

02:30.000 --> 02:35.000
Check your comprehension. 你住多久?

02:35.000 --> 02:41.000
How long are you staying?我住一年.

02:41.000 --> 02:44.000
I'm staying for one year.

02:44.000 --> 02:48.000
On their way to Taiwan, the king stopped in Hong Kong.

02:48.000 --> 02:52.000
The king had to leave for Taiwan the next day, but Mrs. King stayed a little longer.

02:52.000 --> 02:57.000
Here's a question Mr. King might have been asked while he was still in Hong Kong.

02:57.000 --> 03:05.000
How long was your wife staying?你太太住多久?

03:05.000 --> 03:12.000
She's staying two days. 她住两天.

03:12.000 --> 03:16.000
Listen to the speaker count from one day to five days.

03:16.000 --> 03:23.000
一天,两天,三天,四天,五天.

03:23.000 --> 03:29.000
Notice that the tone on the number one also becomes sprawling before the high tone of the word 天.

03:29.000 --> 03:31.000
一天.

03:31.000 --> 03:37.000
In telling how many days, just as in telling how many years, no counter is used.

03:37.000 --> 03:43.000
You'll remember that in a phrase telling how many, the number two has the special form 两.

03:43.000 --> 03:48.000
Now listen to the exchange again. Live. 你太太住多久?

03:48.000 --> 03:50.000
她住两天.

03:50.000 --> 03:54.000
Again. 你太太住多久?

03:54.000 --> 03:56.000
她住两天.

03:56.000 --> 04:01.000
Suppose Mr. King was not definite about his wife's plans. Listen.

04:01.000 --> 04:12.000
How long is your wife staying in Hong Kong? 你太太在香港住多久?

04:12.000 --> 04:20.000
I think she's staying two days. 我想她住两天.

04:20.000 --> 04:29.000
Here's the verb to think or to believe. 想,想,想.

04:29.000 --> 04:36.000
Notice that when a place and a duration are mentioned in the same sentence, the place goes before the verb and the duration goes after the verb.

04:36.000 --> 04:41.000
Here's the exchange life. 你太太在香港住多久?

04:41.000 --> 04:48.000
我想她住两天.Again. 你太太在香港住多久?

04:48.000 --> 04:59.000
我想她住两天.Check your comprehension. 你太太在香港住多久?

04:59.000 --> 05:07.000
How long is your wife staying in Hong Kong? 我想她住两天.

05:07.000 --> 05:10.000
I think she's staying two days.

05:10.000 --> 05:16.000
The verb 想 can also be used for a different meaning. Listen to this exchange.

05:16.000 --> 05:24.000
How long are you thinking of staying? 你想住多久?

05:24.000 --> 05:32.000
I'm thinking of staying one year. 我想住一年.

05:32.000 --> 05:41.000
When the verb 想 is followed by a whole sentence, as in 我想她住两天, it means to think that such and such is the case.

05:41.000 --> 05:52.000
I think that she's staying two days. When it's followed by just a predicate, it acts as an auxiliary verb meaning to be thinking of doing something or to plan or intend to do something.

05:52.000 --> 06:01.000
我想住一年.I'm thinking of staying one year. Here's the exchange life. 你想住多久?

06:01.000 --> 06:06.000
我想住一年.Again. 你想住多久?

06:06.000 --> 06:16.000
我想住一年.Check your comprehension. 你想住多久?

06:16.000 --> 06:23.000
How long are you thinking of staying? 我想住一年.

06:23.000 --> 06:30.000
I'm thinking of staying one year. So far, we haven't had a duration expressed in months.

06:30.000 --> 06:36.000
When telling how many months, you do use a counter, the general counter, 个.

06:36.000 --> 06:41.000
One year is 一年,but one month is 一个月.

06:41.000 --> 06:52.000
Listen to the speaker count up to five months. 一个月,两个月,三个月,四个月,五个月.

06:52.000 --> 06:56.000
Listen to the duration in months in the following exchange. 听到的 duration in months in the following exchange.

06:56.000 --> 06:59.000
How long are you thinking of staying in Taiwan?

06:59.000 --> 07:07.000
你想在台湾住多久? 你想在台湾住多久?

07:07.000 --> 07:16.000
I'm thinking of staying six months. 我想住六个月.

07:16.000 --> 07:21.000
Here's the exchange life. 你想在台湾住多久?

07:21.000 --> 07:27.000
我想住六个月.Again. 你想在台湾住多久?

07:27.000 --> 07:30.000
我想住六个月.

07:30.000 --> 07:37.000
An auxiliary verb, like 想, comes not just before the main verb of a sentence, but also before any prepositional verb.

07:37.000 --> 07:42.000
Listen to the following sentence within without the auxiliary verb 想.

07:42.000 --> 07:49.000
I work in Taipei. 我在台北工作.

07:49.000 --> 07:55.000
I'm thinking of working in Taipei. 我想在台北工作.

07:55.000 --> 07:58.000
I work in Taipei. 我想在台北工作.

07:58.000 --> 08:04.000
The auxiliary verb qualifies the meaning of the entire verb phrase, not just the main verb. 幼西云語的意思是整个 verb phrase, not just the main verb.

08:04.000 --> 08:08.000
What you're thinking of doing is working in Taipei, not simply working. 想做的是在台北工作, not simply working. 想做的是在台北工作, not simply working.

08:08.000 --> 08:12.000
A duration can also be expressed in weeks. 一个阶段可以 also be expressed in weeks. 一个阶段可以 also be expressed in weeks.

08:12.000 --> 08:19.000
Here's the word for week. 听齐,听齐,听齐。

08:19.000 --> 08:22.000
You'll probably remember it from the names of the days of the week. 您会 probably remember it from the names of the days of the week.

08:22.000 --> 08:26.000
For instance,星期四,Thursday. 星期四,Thursday.

08:26.000 --> 08:33.000
Here's a duration expressed in weeks. Listen. 你朋友想住多久?

08:33.000 --> 08:44.000
他想住两个星期. 你会发现星期两天,但两个星期两天。

08:44.000 --> 08:49.000
Here's the exchange again. 你朋友想住多久?

08:49.000 --> 08:57.000
他想住两个星期. 看证证的,你朋友想住多久?

08:57.000 --> 09:05.000
他想住两个星期。 他想住两个星期。

09:05.000 --> 09:09.000
他想住两个星期。 他想住两个星期。

09:09.000 --> 09:23.000
To review these expressions of duration, try translating the following sentences. You'll hear each one twice. 我想住两年。

09:23.000 --> 09:36.000
I'm thinking of staying two years. 我在台中住九个月。

09:36.000 --> 09:49.000
I'm staying in Taiwan for nine months. 我想在台北住两个月。

09:49.000 --> 10:01.000
I'm thinking of staying in Taiwan for two months. 我在台南住一个星期。

10:01.000 --> 10:11.000
I'm staying in Taiwan for a week. 我住三年。

10:11.000 --> 10:25.000
I'm staying three years. 我想在香港住十天。

10:25.000 --> 10:36.000
I'm thinking of staying in Hong Kong ten days. 你想住多久?

10:36.000 --> 10:40.000
How long are you thinking of staying? 你想住多久?

10:40.000 --> 10:49.000
Questions about how many days, weeks, months, or years use the question word 几, how many, which takes the place of the number in the duration phrase.

10:49.000 --> 11:04.000
Try translating the following duration questions. You'll hear each one twice. 你想住几年?

11:04.000 --> 11:15.000
How many years are you thinking of staying? 你想住几天?

11:15.000 --> 11:27.000
How many days are you thinking of staying? 你想住几个月?

11:27.000 --> 11:39.000
How many months are you thinking of staying? 你想住几个星期?

11:39.000 --> 11:47.000
How many weeks are you thinking of staying? 你想住几个星期?

11:47.000 --> 11:55.000
How long have you been here? 你来了多久了?

11:55.000 --> 12:02.000
I've been here three days. 我来了三天了。

12:02.000 --> 12:14.000
Notice that these sentences have two low markers. The low marker after the verb marks completed action. The low marker after the duration phrase marks a new situation.

12:14.000 --> 12:21.000
In the plain sentence, pa la la, these come. The two low markers are combined into one.

12:21.000 --> 12:30.000
But when there's a duration expression after the verb, each of the two meanings is expressed by a separate marker. Listen to the exchange again.

12:30.000 --> 12:37.000
How long have you been here? 你来了多久了?

12:37.000 --> 12:45.000
I've been here three days. 我来了三天了。

12:45.000 --> 12:52.000
When you're talking about the present, the new situation marker le can be translated as of now.

12:52.000 --> 12:59.000
In duration sentences however, a better equivalent is the expression so far, as in, I've been here three days so far.

12:59.000 --> 13:06.000
The so far translation suggests that whatever has been going on for the amount of time you mention will keep going on.

13:06.000 --> 13:11.000
Here's the exchange again. Live. 你来了多久了?

13:11.000 --> 13:13.000
我来了三天了。

13:13.000 --> 13:16.000
Again. 你来了多久了?

13:16.000 --> 13:18.000
我来了三天了。

13:18.000 --> 13:25.000
Check your comprehension. 你来了多久了?

13:25.000 --> 13:28.000
How long have you been here? 我来了三天了。

13:28.000 --> 13:33.000
I've been here three days. 我来了三天了。

13:33.000 --> 13:38.000
You may have noticed that in English we talk about the situation. 我来了三天了。

13:38.000 --> 13:41.000
I've been here for three days. 我来了三天了。

13:41.000 --> 13:48.000
While in Chinese, you talk about the action that brought the situation about. 我来了三天了。

13:48.000 --> 13:56.000
The function of a new situation le marker can best be understood if we consider a situation in which it would not be used.

13:56.000 --> 14:04.000
Listen to this continuation of the conversation, which is taking place after Mr. and Mrs. King have both arrived in Taiwan.

14:04.000 --> 14:15.000
How long did your wife stay in Hong Kong? 你太太在香港住了多久?

14:15.000 --> 14:22.000
She stayed two days. 她住了两天。

14:22.000 --> 14:28.000
Since Mrs. King is no longer in Hong Kong, Mr. King can't say that she has been there two days now.

14:28.000 --> 14:34.000
He has to say she was there for two days, so the new situation marker le is not used.

14:34.000 --> 14:42.000
Listen to the exchange live. 你太太在香港住了多久?

14:42.000 --> 14:48.000
Again. 你太太在香港住了多久?

14:48.000 --> 14:51.000
Check your comprehension. 你太太在香港住了多久?

14:51.000 --> 14:57.000
How long did your wife stay in Hong Kong? 你太太在香港住了多久?

14:57.000 --> 15:04.000
How long did your wife stay in Hong Kong? 她住了两天。

15:04.000 --> 15:07.000
She stayed two days. 她住了两天。

15:07.000 --> 15:12.000
Let's compare sentences with and without the new situation marker le. 让我们 compare sentences with and without the new situation marker le.

15:12.000 --> 15:19.000
How long did she stay there? 她住了多久?

15:19.000 --> 15:27.000
How long has she been here? 她住了多久了?

15:27.000 --> 15:34.000
The first sentence with one more marker after the verb only asks about how long the activity took place.

15:34.000 --> 15:44.000
How long did she say? The second sentence with two more markers asks about how long the activity has been taking place as of now.

15:44.000 --> 15:47.000
Let's go back to an earlier sentence.

15:47.000 --> 15:50.000
You'll remember that we said that in the sentence 她住了两天。

15:50.000 --> 15:52.000
She's come. 她住了两天。

15:52.000 --> 15:53.000
The le marker had two meanings. 她住了两天。

15:53.000 --> 15:56.000
Completed action and new situation. 她住了两天。

15:56.000 --> 16:00.000
Now listen to the same sentence set under different circumstances.

16:00.000 --> 16:06.000
Mr. King is being asked whether someone came to a party he gave the previous week.

16:06.000 --> 16:12.000
Did he come? 她住了两天。

16:12.000 --> 16:14.000
Yes, he came. 她住了两天。

16:14.000 --> 16:20.000
She's come. 她住了两天。

16:20.000 --> 16:25.000
In this context, since the man could not be still at a party that took place a week before,

16:25.000 --> 16:30.000
the syllable le after the verb lie is taken to be the completed action le alone,

16:30.000 --> 16:33.000
and is translated with the English past tense.

16:33.000 --> 16:37.000
Here's the exchange lie. 她住了两天。

16:37.000 --> 16:40.000
She's come. 她住了两天。

16:40.000 --> 16:42.000
Again. 她住了两天。

16:42.000 --> 16:45.000
She's come. 她住了两天。

16:45.000 --> 16:47.000
Check your comprehension. 她住了两天。

16:47.000 --> 16:50.000
She's come. 她住了两天。

16:50.000 --> 16:52.000
Did he come? 她住了两天。

16:52.000 --> 16:56.000
She's come. 她住了两天。

16:56.000 --> 16:59.000
Yes, he came. 她住了两天。

16:59.000 --> 17:03.000
Now listen to how Mr. King would have answered if the person hadn't come to his party.

17:03.000 --> 17:06.000
Did he come? 她住了两天。

17:06.000 --> 17:09.000
She's come. 她住了两天。

17:09.000 --> 17:11.000
No, he didn't. 她住了两天。

17:11.000 --> 17:18.000
May lie. 她 may lie. 她 may lie.

17:18.000 --> 17:22.000
Notice that since there is no new situation le in the affirmative sentence,

17:22.000 --> 17:27.000
there is no high yet in the negative sentence.

17:27.000 --> 17:33.000
Compare a sentence which negates just completed action le to a sentence which negates combined le.

17:33.000 --> 17:39.000
He didn't come. 她 may lie. 她 may lie.

17:39.000 --> 17:47.000
He hasn't come, or he hasn't come yet. 她还没来。

17:47.000 --> 17:51.000
Here's the exchange lie. 她来了吗?

17:51.000 --> 17:54.000
没来,她没来。

17:54.000 --> 17:59.000
Again, 她来了吗? 没来,她没来。

17:59.000 --> 18:04.000
Check your comprehension. 她来了吗?

18:04.000 --> 18:08.000
Did he come? 没来,她没来。

18:08.000 --> 18:12.000
No, he didn't. No, he didn't.

18:12.000 --> 18:16.000
To review what you've had so far, listen to the following dialogue,

18:16.000 --> 18:18.000
which takes place shortly after Mr. Perez,

18:18.000 --> 18:21.000
a Foreign Service Officer, has arrived at the American Embassy

18:21.000 --> 18:26.000
Chinese Language School in Taichung for Language Training.

18:26.000 --> 18:29.000
白先生,你来了几天了?

18:29.000 --> 18:32.000
我来了四天了。

18:32.000 --> 18:34.000
你在香港住了多久?

18:34.000 --> 18:36.000
我住了一个月。

18:36.000 --> 18:39.000
我想住两年。

18:39.000 --> 18:42.000
白先生,你来了几天了?

18:42.000 --> 18:44.000
我来了四天了。

18:44.000 --> 18:47.000
你在香港住了多久?

18:47.000 --> 18:49.000
我住了一个月。

18:49.000 --> 18:52.000
你想在这里住多久?

18:52.000 --> 18:54.000
我想住两年。

18:54.000 --> 18:57.000
If you understood the conversation,

18:57.000 --> 19:01.000
白先生,你来了几天了?

19:01.000 --> 19:06.000
白先生,你来了几天了?

19:06.000 --> 19:09.000
Mr. Perez, how many days have you been here?

19:09.000 --> 19:13.000
我来了四天了。

19:13.000 --> 19:16.000
I've been here four days.

19:16.000 --> 19:21.000
你在香港住了多久?

19:21.000 --> 19:23.000
How long did you stay in Hong Kong?

19:23.000 --> 19:27.000
我住了一个月。

19:27.000 --> 19:29.000
I stayed one month.

19:29.000 --> 19:35.000
你想在这里住多久?

19:35.000 --> 19:37.000
How long are you thinking of staying here?

19:37.000 --> 19:42.000
我想住两年。

19:42.000 --> 19:46.000
I'm thinking of staying two years.

19:46.000 --> 19:52.000
Now listen to Mr. Perez if he has been in Taiwan before.

19:52.000 --> 19:54.000
Have you ever been here before?

19:54.000 --> 19:57.000
你从前来过吗?

19:57.000 --> 19:59.000
I've never been here before.

19:59.000 --> 20:02.000
我从前没来过。

20:02.000 --> 20:05.000
I've never been here before.

20:05.000 --> 20:08.000
我从前没来过。

20:08.000 --> 20:11.000
Here's the word for formally or before.

20:11.000 --> 20:17.000
从前,从前,从前。

20:17.000 --> 20:20.000
We've translated the marker 过 of 来过

20:20.000 --> 20:24.000
with the word ever in the affirmative and never in the negative.

20:24.000 --> 20:29.000
This marker is used to talk about whether someone has ever experienced a certain kind of event.

20:29.000 --> 20:35.000
The completed action marker 乐 on the other hand is used to talk about a particular single event.

20:35.000 --> 20:37.000
Listen to the exchange again.

20:37.000 --> 20:39.000
Have you ever been here before?

你从前来过吗?

20:44.000 --> 20:46.000
I've never been here before.

20:46.000 --> 20:51.000
我从前没来过。

20:51.000 --> 20:57.000
Notice that the marker 过 like the completed action marker 乐 is negated with 没 rather than 不.

20:57.000 --> 21:02.000
But while the marker 乐 drops out in a negative sentence, the marker 过 stays.

21:02.000 --> 21:05.000
Here's the exchange live.

21:05.000 --> 21:07.000
你从前来过吗?

21:27.000 --> 21:30.000

21:53.000 --> 21:55.000
Have you ever been here before?
