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 adverb "incorrectly" in English.

Object + Subject + Verb + 错 + 了

Note that this sentence puts the object first as a topic.

Examples

  • 这 个 字 你 写 了。
  • 你 说 的 话 我 听 了。
  • 我 记 了。

As with all result complements, the -错 result complement works particularly well in a 把 sentence.
