Structure
Forming a result complement with 好 has a very similar meaning to forming one with 完. It expressed that the action has been completed successfully.
When using result complements, it's very common to make the object a topic. This means the object is said first and the subject is often omitted:
Object + Verb + 好 + 了
Examples
- 你的 作业 做 好 了 吗？
- 饭 吃 好 了。
- 水果 买 好 了。
See also
As with all result complements, the -好 result complement works particularly well in a 把 sentence.
