Making statements

Chinese allows action predicates, adjective predicates, some nominal predicates and complete utterances without an overt subject. Do not force every sentence into an English subject-plus-be template. Ask what the speaker is actually asserting about the topic.

喝

Verb-predicate sentences

Build the core statement as subject+verb+object, adding time or location before the action when needed.

弟弟喝牛奶。

Dì di hē niú nǎi.

My younger brother drinks milk.

Lainnya

Jebakan: Chinese verbs do not change form merely because the subject changes.

不贵

Adjective-predicate sentences

Describe qualities with subject+degree word+adjective. 不 can negate the quality directly.

这本书不贵。

Zhè běn shū bù guì.

This book is not expensive.

Lainnya

Jebakan: 不是贵 is not the neutral basic negation of expensive.

星期一

Nominal-predicate sentences

Short predicates can give dates, times or ages directly. The context makes their relation to the subject clear.

今天星期一。

Jīn tiān xīng qī yī.

Today is Monday.

Lainnya

Jebakan: Do not generalize this pattern to every noun: identification commonly uses 是.

请进

Sentences without an expressed subject

Greetings, commands and brief situational utterances can function without an explicit subject. Recover meaning from the setting.

请进!

Qǐng jìn!

Please come in!

Lainnya

Jebakan: A complete utterance need not always have an overt subject.

住在北京

Statements

A statement supplies information rather than directly requesting it. Its predicate can describe action, identity, location or a quality.

我住在北京。

Wǒ zhù zài běi jīng.

I live in Beijing.

Lainnya

Jebakan: No question particle is needed in a plain statement.
