\tTwo of the most common result complements in Chinese are \u5230 (dào) and \u89c1 (jiàn). Both can be used in similar statements.<\/p>\n
\tStructure <\/strong><\/p>\n \tResult complements are a huge topic in Chinese grammar, but you can approach them in stages. The structure you come across the most is a verb with \u5230 (dào):<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tWhat \u5230 does is indicate that the outcome of the verb is achieved – what its result is. Without a result complement, the sentence would describe only the action itself. To illustrate, \u60f3 "to think" is the action of thinking, whereas \u60f3\u5230 "to think (of something)" is a the result of that process.<\/p>\n \tThe complement \u89c1 is very similar to \u5230, and it is used in the same way:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tHowever, \u89c1 is generally only used after verbs involving sense, like \u542c and \u770b, whereas \u5230 can be attached to a large variety of verbs.<\/p>\n \tAs in the last sentence, this structure can be negated using \u6ca1.<\/p>\n \tExamples <\/strong> \t<\/p>\n \t <\/p>\n
