Chinese Grammar- the Object 汉语语法-宾语
The Object
An object is appended to a verb acting as the subject to indicate the target of an action, the place arrived at by an action, the tools used in an action, or the result of an action. For instance,
我们在吃饭 (wǒmen zài chīfàn)。We are having lunch. ("饭" is the object)
The object is usually placed after a verb serving as a predicate. The object is most often a noun or pronoun. However, nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, numerals, and phrases can all act as the object. For instance,
我们明天去购物 (wǒmen míngtiān qù gòuwù)。We will go shopping tomorrow. (The noun "购物" is the object)
