Expressing "the more... the more..." with "yue… yue…"
Nível: HSK 3 | Categoria: Gramática
Fórmula Sintática: Subj. + 越 ⋯⋯ ,越 ⋯⋯
Explicação da Regra:
More than "putting stuff" after two instances of 越 (yuè) in a sentence, there are a number of very specific patterns you will notice if you want to get more sophisticated with 越 (yuè) and go beyond using the simpler 越来越 (yuèláiyuè) . Subj. + 越 ⋯⋯ ,越 ⋯⋯ It's normally verbs or verb phrases following each 越, but adjectives are also possible (typically after the second 越). Sometimes this pattern is best translated into English as "more and more," which is similar to 越来越 (yuèláiyuè) .
