Everyone makes mistakes, especially when you start learning Chinese. Learn how to use the result complement 错 (cuò) to express making mistakes!
 
 
 
== Structure ==
 
 
 
To express that an action resulted in an error, you can use a [[result complement]] with -错. This covers what is often expressed with the [[adverbs|adverb]] "incorrectly" in English.
 
 
 
<div class="jiegou">
 
 
 
Object + Subject + Verb + 错 + 了
 
 
 
</div>
 
 
 
Note that this sentence puts the object first as a [[Topic-comment sentences|topic]].
 
 
 
== Examples ==
 
 
 
<div class="liju">
 
 
 
* 这 个 字 你 写 <em>错</em> 了。<span class="trans">You wrote this character wrong.</span>
 
* 你 说 的 话 我 听 <em>错</em> 了。<span class="trans">I misheard what you said.</span>
 
* 我 记 <em>错</em> 了。<span class="trans">I remembered wrongly.</span>
 
 
 
</div>
 
 
 
As with all result complements, the -错 result complement works particularly well in a [[Ba sentence|把 sentence]].
