    • “到”用在动词谓语之后作结果补语，表示人或事物通过动作到达某处、有了结果，或说明动作持续的时间。 As a complement of result, 到 indicates that a person or an object reaches a certain place, achieves a goal or an action continues until a certain time.
    • 动量补语“一下”除了有时表示具体的动量外，常用来表示动作经历的时间短或表示轻松随便。 As a complement of frequency, 一下 means the number of times an action has taken place. Alternatively, it can indicate an action lasting only for a short time.

    • 副词“就”用在动词前，表示事情发生得早、快，或进行得顺利。 The adverb 就 is used before verb indicating an event took place early, quickly, or smoothly. 副词“就”用在动词前，表示事情发生得晚,慢,或进行得不顺利 The adverb "才" is used before a verb indicating an event took place too late, slowly or occurred with difficulty.

    • “要…了”表示一个动作或情况很快就要发生，“要”前可以加上“就”或“快”，表示时间紧迫。“就要…了”，“快要…了”也可以省略为“就…了”，“快…了”。 要…了 indicates that an event is about to take place. 要 may be preceded by 就 or 快. 就要…了 and 快要…了 may be simplified as 就…了 and 快…了.
    • 一部分形容词可以重叠，表示性质的程度加深。双音节形容词重叠的方式是“AABB”，作状语时一般要加“地”。 Some adjectives can be duplicated to indicate a high degree. A duplicated form of the disyllabic adjective is AABB. When it is used as an adverbial, 地 is often used after it.
