Expressing completion with "le"

Nível: HSK 1 | Categoria: Gramática

Explicação da Regra:

The particle 了 (le) has a lot of uses. One of the most common is to express the completion of an action. This is called aspect, which is not the same as tense. Tense is about when an action happens: past, present or future. With regards to 了 (le), aspect is about whether the action is complete in a certain time frame. The simplest way to use 了 (le) is to just put it after a verb. When there's nothing else after the verb, there are no complications! Subj. + Verb + 了 • 他们 到 了 。Tāmen dào le.They have arrived. • 我 买 了 。Wǒ mǎi le.I've bought it. • 我们 都 去 了 。Wǒmen dōu qù le.We all went. • 我 找到 了 ！Wǒ zhǎodào le!I found it!
