  • @andrewmastronunzio615
    @andrewmastronunzio615 4 роки тому +3

    Very helpful video! I am still learning, so take this explanation with a grain of salt.
    I think of "ba3" as meaning "unto", in a sort of archaic English structure. "He unto the book threw it in the river". 他把书扔了进河里. The explanation in this video really makes sense- it is most important to know that what he did to the book was throw it in a river. If a group of people are throwing things into the river and someone asks- "what did he throw in?" then maybe it is more important to say "I threw a rock into the river. He threw a book into the river" 他进河里扔了一本书. But if your teacher asks what happened to your book, it is more important to convey that it ended up in the river.
    If someone asks what did I eat for lunch- "I ate beef." 我吃了牛肉. If someone put beef in the fridge at work, and then it isn't there when he goes for lunch, he might ask "what happened to the beef?" He ATE your beef! 他把你的牛肉吃了!
    I think there might a be of a loose correlation with definite and indefinite article (a/an versus the), where if you use the indefinite article, you might care more about the verb- "what did you giver her just now? I gave her a book." 我刚才送给她一本书。 If you use the definite article, you might care more about the specific object- what happened to the book? I unto the book gave it to her. 我把书送给她了。 In that example we already know what the object is that we are talking about, we want to know what happened to it.
    I'll bet that knowing Latin (which I do not) would make it much easier to understand because all the case endings requires a lot more thought about the role of each part of the sentence. A great example of this is in Monty Python's Life of Brian, when Brian tries to write graffiti that says "Romans go home!"

    There's actually a similarity with latin languages in this. When you said "我把手洗干净了" I thought that even in Italian (my mother tongue), if we wanted to put the emphasis on the *action* of washing hands, we would change the word order and say "Io le mani *le ho lavate* " instead of "I ho lavato le mani". Meanwhile in English I would just change "I washed my hands" to "I *did* wash my hands" to have the same emphasis on the action.

  • @andreswang6666
    @andreswang6666 3 роки тому

    把 has the meaning of 'take, grab', so it's helpful to understand the sentence '我把xx (object) xx(verb) 了' as 'I took xx (object) to its end status of xx(verb).' in order to emphasize the end result. '我把咖啡喝完了’ means I took the coffee to its end result of being finished off. It's counter intuitive in english, but it's used very frequently in Chinese.

    • @FDE-fw1hd
      @FDE-fw1hd 3 роки тому

      But like I thought you use it because the impact is important. Like the example she used. 我把手洗干净了. That brings the action last. Unless the reasoning is that the last part of a sentence is the most emphasized.

    I know it's not the same, but there's a similar feeling to English informal sentences which have the structure "take this and..." or "get that and..." "take that and put it over there" It's not a common pattern in English but the feeling helped me to not be so confused by "ba"

    @chrisng7972 4 роки тому +14

    Let me throw in something for you to ponder on and perhaps change your mind. The verb “to render” can be used to simulate the word ‘bah’. For example, in your drinking water phrase, the English translation might be: I rendered the water to be drunk.
    The verb “to render” describes or emphasizes the adjective “drunk”.
    Of course, that is an odd way to construct an English sentence but it does make sense and can sometimes change the emphasis of the meaning.

    Hello Teacher,
    Can you please leave the words on the screen longer for us.

    Chinese and English have the same sentence structure of S + V + O. By using the word "ba", it becomes similar to the latin languages' sentence structure of S + O + V.
