Just as in any language, true mastery lies in the little details. Remembering that \u6709(\u4e00)\u70b9\u513f functions as an adverb while (\u4e00)\u70b9\u513f acts as a quantifier is easy enough on paper, but using these two phrases correctly when you\u2019re engaged in a conversation can be a different story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So next time you chat with a native Chinese speaker, listen closely and practice using these phrases yourself. With time and practice, you\u2019ll be able to use them with confidence and precision, making your Mandarin language skills all the more impressive .Click <a href=index-112.html>here<\/a> to check out our video explaining this topic, as well as many other HSK grammar points.
