Rita Mandarin Chinese | Le 了 Explained | 6 Usages You NEED to Know【Chinese Grammar】 @RitaChinese | Uploaded March 2021 | Updated October 2024, 20 hours ago.
Hey hey, Rita aka Fàn lǎoshī here! Ready to use my 10-year Chinese teaching experience to help you master this almighty yet confusing Chinese particle – 了!
I’ve lost count of how many times I was asked about this word by Chinese learners at different levels! Being the arguably most difficult word in Mandarin Chinese, it definitely takes a while to get all of its uses in varied contexts and tones of voice.
More importantly, how do we use it correctly and properly? Nothing would be clearer than a collection of sentence structures with 了.
In this video, I’ll walk you through more than 6 usages of 了 that are linked to each other:
0:00 Intro
1:09 verb suffix
3:26 sentence-final 了
5:15 have (not) been doing
6:24 soon 了
7:34 modal particle
8:41 fixed structures
Leave your thoughts or any questions about Chinese learning that you have in the comments! They may be answered in my next video soon!
Btw your subscription, like and comment are HUGE support for original content like this video! The more my videos are promoted to Chinese learners by YouTube algorithm, the more motivated I will be to make content for you all! It means the world to me. 谢谢！
Remember, with Fàn lǎoshī, Chinese makes perfect sense!
