Expressing the only two possibilities
Revision as of 07:49, 14 November 2011 by Jonathan.pope (talk | contribs)
To describe a situation as being one of only two possibilities, you can use this structure:
不是 + A, 就是 + B
This is like saying "if it's not A, then it's B" in English. A and B can be verbs, adjectives or nouns.
Some examples:
- 他 整天 不 是 打游戏 就 是 睡觉。
- 他们 约会 不是 去 咖啡馆 就是 去 电影院。
- 她 穿 的 衣服 不是 LV 就是 Gucci！
