主谓句2:形容词谓语句

Subject-predicate sentences 2: Adjectival predicate sentences

Explanation

In this type of sentence, an adjective serves as the predicate to describe a characteristic of the subject. The subject is the person or thing being talked about, for example '房间' (room) or '这个学生' (this student). An adjective such as '干净' (clean) or '认真' (serious) comes after the subject. An adverb such as '很' (very) or '最' (most) is often added before the adjective to strengthen the meaning.

Examples

房间很干净。
fángjiānhěngānjìng
这个学生最认真。
zhègexuéshēngzuìrènzhēn
