Randy W Posted October 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 from ShuoshuoChinese说说中文 How to use 'le' in Chinese - 怎么用“了” - Basic Chinese Grammar - Elementary/Intermediate Chinese This video is about how to use 了 (le). There are many videos online teaching how to use 了，but I promise you, this one is the one that can really help you fully understand 了 and you will start your first step in building a Chinese-thinking mind from today! 了 is one of the most complicated Chinese words. It has three usages: 01:07 了 in set phrase 【Some set phrases include: 太 + adj. + 了 (tài + adj. + le, extremely, so, very)； adj. + 死了 (adj. + sǐ le, extremmely, so adj. that I could die)； adj. + 极了 (adj. + jí le, extremely, super)； 可 + adj. + 了(kě + adj + le, very)； 就要/快要/快/要 + v. + 了 (jiù yào/kuài yào/kuài/yào + v. + le, be about to, very soon)， 别 + v. + 了 (bié + v. + le, stop doing)， 已经 + v./adj. + 了 (yǐ jīng + v./adj. + le, already)】 02:33 了 indicates change of state 04:56 了 emphasises completion of an action The most important idea starts from 06:35. It can help you finally understand how to use 了. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a comment! Link to comment
