  113. In the last module you learned that an or question in Chinese can be formed without the or.
  114. As in 是男孩子是女孩子。
  115. If you repeat the verb and the nouns.
  116. When only the nouns are said, the word 还是 must be said.
  117. How do you say this blue one or this red one?
  118. 这个蓝的还是这个红的?
  119. Perhaps you'd like to see both the blue one and the red one.
  120. Listen.

  130. Now in 那两个都给我看看.
  131. The object 那两个 is at the front of the sentence in the topic position.
  132. This is due to the use of the adverb 都.
  133. As you know, the adverb 都 always goes before the verb.
  134. What you also need to know is that whatever 都 refers to must go before the 都.
  135. Whether it's subject or object.
  136. Repeat, give me both of them to look at.
  137. 那两个都给我看看.

  190. the marker L is used here to indicate a new situation
  191. that something has changed
  192. that something is of course the price
  193. it's crossed over into the expensive category
  194. we might translate 太贵了 as
  195. that's expensive now
  196. how do you say this blue kind is too expensive
  197. 这个蓝的太贵了
  198. the remark continues like this
  199. 我买红的吧红的便宜
  200. 嗯红的便宜
  201. repeat I'll buy the red kind I guess
  202. 我买红的吧
  203. 我买红的吧

  206. how do you say this blue kind is too expensive
  207. 这个蓝的太贵了
  208. how do you say I'll buy the red kind I guess

  216. you'll notice that something is happening here
  217. in the English we're saying cheaper
  218. but the Chinese is still便宜
  219. this is because the adjectival verbs imply comparison when used alone
  220. that is when used without a modifier like very
  221. how do you say the red kind is cheaper
  222. 红的便宜
  223. try saying the whole remark now the blue kind is too expensive

  257. 红的便宜
  258. 你有大一点的吗有
  259. we said that adjectival verbs such as 达
  260. imply comparison by themselves
  261. to the verb 达 makes it even clearer that things are being compared
  262. repeat a little larger
  263. 大一点
  264. you learn that 达的 meant the large one the marker 达 being added
  265. when the noun that follows such as 花拼 is not said
  266. here the marker 达 follows the phrase 大一点
  267. a little larger repeat the little bit larger one

  284. repeat what do you think of this one
  285. 您看这个怎么样
  286. 您看这个怎么样

  319. as you remember
  320. the use of the mark of bah makes the statement less sure
  321. without the bah the sentence might sound more like
  322. with the bah the sentence is less of a declaration and more of a suggestion
  323. how do you say okay I'll buy the large one I guess
