Comparing "chao" "xiang" and "wang"

Nível: HSK 5 | Categoria: Gramática

Explicação da Regra:

All three of these, 朝 (cháo), 向 (xiàng), and 往 (wǎng) can be used to indicate direction or position. When these preposition phrases are used before a verb, the three have the same structure and their meaning is the same. Although they are often interchangeable, there are also cases when they are not. Just put one of the three before the direction and the verb! 向 / 朝 / 往 + Direction + Verb The three are interchangeable in these types of "purely directional" usage.
