When you use 不怎么 (bù zěnme) before an adjective, it means "not very." This structure is similar to how English speakers may say something is "not very good".

Structure

Just put 不怎么 in front of the adjective and you're all ready to go!

Object + 不怎么 + adjective

Examples

  • 你 这个 人 不怎么 好。
  • 我 觉得 这个 菜 不怎么 好吃。
  • 你的 孩子 不怎么 可爱。
  • 工作 进行 得 不怎么 顺利。
