The resultative complement 坏 (huài) is another one of those complements which can be used literally and figuratively.
Structure
Verb + 坏
坏 can mean "to break," or "to get messed up."
Examples
- 自行车 被 他 摔 坏 了。The bike was broken by him.
- 明明 是 你 弄 坏 的，还 怪 我！You obviously broke it, but you're still blaming me!
However, figuratively it is a bit like the complement 死, and can be used to mean "extremely" in a positive and negative sense.
- 那 部 鬼片 把 我 吓 坏 了，睡觉 都 不 敢 关灯 了！That ghost scared me to death. I won't be able to sleep without the lights on!
- 孩子 不见 了，妈妈 急 坏 了 ！The child is missing. The mother is worried to death.
