和解释
你会记得
Mr. Martin的妻子
在计划中
有几个月后
这就是他曾经的谈谈
前面
听说
Is your wife coming?
你爱人来吗?
你爱人来吗?
She's coming.
哈莱
哈莱
Here's the verb to come.
来
来
来
Listen for the verb to come.
来
And a live exchange.
你爱人来吗?
哈莱
Again
你爱人来吗?
哈莱
Check your comprehension.
你爱人来吗?
Is your wife coming?
哈莱
She's coming.
In English, we may sometimes use a present tense to refer to a future happening.
In the last exchange, for example,
She's coming probably doesn't mean that Mrs. Martin is on her way right now.
Mr. Martin might amplify by saying
She's coming next month
using a present tense verb form
but specifying a future time.
This is how Chinese always works.
There are ways of specifying future time
but there is nothing like a future tense.
It's the same for specifying past time.
In English, anything before the time of speaking must have a past tense verb.
In Chinese, there is no such uniform rule.
There are, however, several ways of indicating that an event took place before a certain time.
Unless some other time is specifically mentioned,
This time is assumed to be the time of speaking.
For instance,
Listen to the following exchange.
Has your wife come?
你爱人来吗?
你爱人来吗?
Yes, she's come.
她来了.
来了.她来了.
Both of these sentences contain the expression Lila.
The verb lie plus the neutral tone syllable l.
We translate the expression Lila as has come.
This translation suggests the two different things indicated by the added syllable l.
First,
The fact that the action has been completed.
In other words,
That Mrs. Martin came to Peking.
And second,
The fact that a new situation has come about.
In other words,
That she is in Peking now.
Because there's the meaning that a new situation has come about,
The sentence
Lila
Could also be translated.
She's here.
Later you will find that Chinese can indicate either of the two meanings separately.
Either the completion of an action alone,
Or the coming about of a new situation alone.
Here's the exchange live.
你爱人来了吗?
来了,她来了.
Again,
你爱人来了吗?
来了,她来了.
Check your comprehension.
你爱人来了吗?
As your wife come?
来了,她来了.
Yes, she's come.
Here's another live exchange.
Listen.
你朋友也都来了吗?
他们也都来了.
Notice the position of the adverbs 也 and 都 before the verb.
Again.
你朋友也都来了吗?
他们也都来了.
Check your comprehension.
你朋友也都来了吗?
Have your friends all come too?
他们也都来了.
They've all come too.
Let's go back to the situation where Mr. Martin is alone in Peking and listen to him say that his wife has not come to China.
Has your wife come too?
你爱人也来了吗?
你爱人也来了吗?
She hasn't come yet.
她还没来.
她还没来.
Compare this negative answer with the affirmative answer you heard earlier to the same question.
There's more difference than you would expect.
She has come.
她来了.
She hasn't come yet.
她还没来.
她还没来.
First, the negative of a completed action expression is indicated by putting the syllable may in front of the verb.
May lie.
Second, the fact that we are talking about the situation as of now is indicated by adding the adverb high.
她还没来.She hasn't come yet. You've had the adverb high translated as still. Here we translate it as yet.
Both the English sentence, she hasn't come yet, and the Chinese sentence,她还没来.
Suggest, of course, that she is coming sometime.
If you knew she wasn't planning to come, you'd simply say,她还没来,她还没来,她还没来,她还没来.
If you knew she wasn't planning to come, you'd simply say,她不来, she's not coming.
Here's the exchange again, live.
你爱人也来了吗?
她还没来.
Again.
你爱人也来了吗?
她还没来.
Check your comprehension.
你爱人也来了吗?
Has your wife come too?
她还没来.
She hasn't come yet.
You'll recognize the 没 in this exchange as the special negative that occurred in 没有 as in the sentence.
We don't have any children.
The syllable 没 in 没来 is actually an abbreviation of 没.
Either 没 or 没 can be used for the negation of a completed action sentence.
Listen for 没 in this live exchange.
她来了吗?
她还没来.
Again.
她来了吗?
她还没来.
As a review of verbs with and without the markers 没有 and 还没.
See if you understand the following random sentences.
她来.
He's coming.
她不来.
He's not coming.
她来了.
He's come.
她还没来.
She hasn't come yet.
她不来.
He isn't coming.
她还没有来.
She hasn't come yet.
她来了.
She's come.
她还没来.
He hasn't come yet.
The Chinese expression for when is 什么时候?
Literally, what time?
You already know the word for what? 什么?
Listen to the word for time.
时候.
Now listen to the expression, what time? That is, when? 什么时候?
Here's the word for tomorrow. 明天.
Listen for when? 什么时候?
And tomorrow, 明天, in this exchange about Mrs. Martin.
When is she coming? 她什么时候来?
She's coming tomorrow. 她明天来.
Here it is live. 她什么时候来?
Again, 她什么时候来? 她明天来.
Check your comprehension. 她什么时候来?
When is she coming? 她明天来.
She's coming tomorrow. Now listen as Mr. Martin is asked about a friend.
When is your friend arriving? 女朋友什么时候到?
He's already arrived. 他已经到了.
Here's the verb for to arrive. 到.
And here's the word for already. 已经.
Here's the exchange live. 已经.
女朋友什么时候到? 她已经到了.
Again, 女朋友什么时候到? 她已经到了.
Check your comprehension. 女朋友什么时候到?
When is your friend arriving? 她已经到了.
He's already arrived. Now see if you can understand the following live exchange.
你爱人孩子已经来了吗? 我爱人已经来了。我孩子还没来。
Again, 你爱人孩子已经来了吗? 我爱人已经来了。
我孩子还没来。Check your comprehension. 你爱人孩子已经来了吗?
Have your wife and children come already? 我爱人已经来了。
My wife has come already. 我孩子还没来。
My children haven't come yet. 我孩子还没来。
As a review of what we've covered so far, make sure you understand the following sentences. 一切是一切是一切。
她什么时候来? 她什么时候来?
When is she coming? 她已经到了。
He has arrived already. 他什么时候到?
When is she arriving? 她还没到。
He hasn't arrived yet. 他明天来吗?
Is she coming tomorrow? 他已经来了吗?

She isn't coming. 她不来。
You may want to rewind the tape and go over this last exercise again. 你 may want to rewind the tape and go over this last exercise again.
So far,you haven't had any sentences concerned with when completed actions took place. These sentences don't use the markers啦 and may. The markers啦 and may are used to specify whether or not an action was completed.
就是,他們是用的 when the center of interest of a sentence is the verb
but when the action is in the past
and the center of interest is on something other than the verb
on the time the action took place for example
a completely different construction is used
Let's say that Mrs. Martin arrived yesterday
Here's the word supre yesterday
做的天
Listen to this exchange about when Mrs. Martin arrived
When did she arrive?
她是什么时候到的?
她是什么时候到的?
She arrived yesterday
她是昨天到的
There are two unexpected elements in these sentences
The first unexpected element is the verb sure
which appears before the time expressions
什么时候,when,and昨天
Yesterday,notice that the verb sure is in the neutral tone
Listen,when did she arrive?
她是什么时候到的?
She arrived yesterday
她是昨天到的
Here,the word sure is really a marker
which identifies the phrase that follows it as the center of interest
The second unexpected element is the final syllable the
added to the verb到 to arrive
Listen for 到的 in the exchange
When did she arrive?
她是什么时候到的?
She arrived yesterday
她是昨天到的
You can think of the marker 到的 as substituting for the marker 到的
when the action is in the past and the center of interest is shifted away from the verb
Now here's the exchange live
她是什么时候到的?
她是昨天到的
Again
她是什么时候到的?
她是昨天到的
Check your comprehension
她是什么时候到的?
When did she arrive?
她是昨天到的
She arrived yesterday
Let's compare a sentence about when an action is going to take place
with a sentence about when a completed action took place
Notice the addition of the markers 时 and 得 in the past time sentence
She's coming tomorrow
她明天来
She came yesterday
她是昨天来的
Now let's compare a sentence centering on the completion of the past action
with a sentence centering on when a past action was completed
Notice the use of 得 when the verb is the center of interest
and the use of 时 and 得 when the time expression is the center of interest
She has come
她来了
She came yesterday
她是昨天来的
Listen to the following live conversation
你是什么时候到的?
我是昨天到的
你爱人也来了吗?
她还没来
她什么时候来?
她明天来
Again
你是什么时候到的?
我是昨天到的
你爱人也来了吗?
她还没来
她什么时候来?
她明天来
Check your comprehension
你是什么时候到的?
When did you arrive?
我是昨天到的
I arrived yesterday
你爱人也来了吗?
As your wife come too?
她还没来
She hasn't come yet
她什么时候来?
When is she coming?
她明天来
She's coming tomorrow
So far all of our examples of the construction with 时 and 得
have involved time expressions
But this device may be used to shift the center of interest from the verb
to another part of the sentence
Take the following exchange
Did you come alone?
你是一个人来的吗?
No, I didn't come alone
不是
我不是一个人来的
不是
我不是一个人来的
You probably recognized 一个人
as the expression one person
Here it's being used to describe how Mr. Martin came to China
that is alone or not alone
The fact that he did come is assumed
Notice that in a 时 得 sentence
the negative goes with the marker 时
not with the main verb
The short answer to a question with 时 得
is also formed with the marker 时
rather than with the main verb
Listen to the exchange lie
你是一个人来的吗?
不是
我不是一个人来的
Again
你是一个人来的吗?
不是
我不是一个人来的
Check your comprehension
你是一个人来的吗?
Did you come alone?
不是
我不是一个人来的
No, I didn't come alone
The conversation might continue as follows
Live
你爱人孩子也都来了吗?
他们也都来了
Again
你爱人孩子也都来了吗?
他们也都来了

Now listen as Mr. Martin asks his question a little differently
What day are you leaving? 你哪天走
I'm leaving today 我今天走
Here's the word for what day?
Literally which day? 哪天
哪天
The word for day is 天
The bound word 哪
which combines with the word 天
to form a compound question word 哪天
Just like the compound question word 哪国
which country?
In this compound and in the words 今天
明天
and 昨天
the bound word 天 day loses its tone
Notice that the word 哪天
like the other time expressions you've had
goes before the verb
Here's the exchange live 你哪天走
我今天走
Again 你哪天走
我今天走
Now listen to the following live exchange 你们走吗?
