Using "zhao" as complement

Nível: HSK 5 | Categoria: Gramática

Explicação da Regra:

When used as a resultative complement, -着 (zháo) expresses that the action has reached its purpose or has had an outcome. It can also be used as a potential complement, meaning "able to." All you have to do is put -着 after the verb. Remember that it should be something that you can reach or achieve. It could be a purpose, or it can be producing an outcome or an influence. Remember: that 着 is pronounced " zháo and not " zhe "! You might be wondering: " why the heck would I use this instead of 到 ? " Hey, excellent question... we like the way you think! But native speakers do use 着 fairly often (especially in the north), so it's something you need to know. Also, 睡着 (shuì zháo), meaning "fall asleep," is an exception in that it is incorrect to say *睡到 to mean "fall asleep."
