Making judgments with "suan"

Nível: HSK 5 | Categoria: Gramática

Explicação da Regra:

The word 算 (suàn) has a number of uses which can be translated in a number of ways. The common theme is that 算 indicates some kind of judgment and may be thought of as "counts as" or "is considered to be." This essentially expresses that one "considers" something to be something else, as in, "I consider her a genius." Subj. (+ 不) + 算 + Noun 算 can also be used with an adjective. It adds a sense of "comparatively speaking," as in, "in the grand scheme of things, this counts as...."
