语法点 Grammar Points

1.     “给”：（1）动词，可以带两个宾语构成双宾语句。例如：

“给”：（1）Verb, which can take two objects to form a double object sentence. For example:

我给您一本中文书吧。

Let me give you a Chinese language book.

她给了老师一些咖啡。

She gave the teacher some coffee.

（2）介词，和名词或代词一起组成句子的状语，放在动词前。例如：

（2）Preposition, which forms the adverbial adjunct of the sentence along with a noun or a pronoun and is placed before the verb. For example:

请你给同学们介绍一下。

Please tell the class about it.

请给我们看一下这本书。

Please let us have a look at this book.

 

2.   程度副词“最”：修饰形容词或心理动词，表示某一方面的最高程度。例如：

The adverb of degree“最”, used to modify adjectives or modal verbs. It expresses the highest degree of a certain aspect. For example:

这是墨西哥最好的咖啡。

This is the best Mexican coffee.

你们这儿最好吃的菜是什么？

What’s the best dish you have here?

我最喜欢吃羊肉。

I like to eat mutton best.

 

3.   语气助词“吧”：用来表示商量、建议等，让语气更加委婉。例如：

The modal particle“吧”： used to soften the tone of a discussion, suggestion etc. For example:

我给你妈妈一本中文书吧。

I’ll give your mom a Chinese language book.

我请你们喝茶吧。

Let me invite you to drink tea.

我们去饭馆吃吧。

Let’s eat at the restaurant.

 

4.   动词+数量补语“一下”：“一下”是“介绍”的补语，因为这个补语表示动作、行为进行的数量、次数，所以叫做动量补语。“动词+一下”表示动作的轻、短或表示轻松的语气等。例如：

Verb+the complement of frequency“一下”：“一下” is the complement of the verb “介绍”. This complement is used to express the quantity or frequency of an action or behavior, therefore it is called a complement of frequency. The structure “V+一下” indicates a light and short action or a soft and relaxed tone. For example:

请给我们介绍一下。

Please tell us about it.

这是我写的书，您看一下。

This is a book I wrote, please have a look.

我是大卫，我们认识一下。

I’m David, let’s get to know each other.
