This creates a sense of &quot;really&quot; or &quot;very&quot;, and makes the descriptive power of the adjective stronger.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>  \tIn most Chinese textbooks and grammar books, this is known as the &quot;AA&quot; pattern. For example:  \t<\/p>\n<div>N\u01d0 de li\u01cen h&oacute;n\u0261 h&oacute;n\u0261 de \u3002<br \/>  \t\u4f60\u7684 \u8138 \u7ea2\u7ea2\u7684\u3002<\/div>\n<div>Your face is very red.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>  \tIf the adjective has more than one character, then you should repeat each character individually.
