动词前边加上副词“在”,或者句末用语气助词“呢”表示动作正在进行。例如:
An action in progress can be expressed by adding the adverb "在" before a verb or by using the modal particle "呢" at the end of a sentence. For example:
在 | Verb+Object | (呢) | |
---|---|---|---|
我 | 在 | 睡觉 | 呢。 |
你 | 在 | 做什么 | 呢? |
小王 | 在 | 学习汉语。 |
“没(在)+动词/动词词组”表示否定,句尾不能用“呢”。例如:
The negative form is "没(在)+Verb/Verb Phrase", without "呢" at the end of the sentence. For example:
Subject | Predicate | ||
---|---|---|---|
没(在) | Verb/Verb Phrase | ||
我 | 没在 | 看电视。 | |
他们 | 没在 | 工作。 | |
他 | 没在 | 看书。 |
“在”也是介词,后边加上表示位置的词语,用于介绍动作行为发生的位置。例如:
"在" can also act as a preposition, used before a word of locality to introduce the place where an action or behavior takes place. For example:
Subject | Predicate | ||
---|---|---|---|
在 | Word of Locality/Direction | Verb | |
我 | 在 | 朋友家 | 喝茶。 |
他们 | 在 | 学校 | 看书。 |
我儿子 | 在 | 医院 | 工作。 |
