Verbs that take double objects

Nível: HSK 2 | Categoria: Gramática

Explicação da Regra:

There are some common verbs in Chinese that can take two objects. In this article, we will look at how they are used. As in English, some verbs in Chinese take two objects. A typical example for English is "to bake someone a cake," and there are countless more. The structure in Chinese is: Subj. + Verb + [Indirect Obj.] + [Direct Obj.] If you don't know what direct and indirect objects are, don't worry; the terms can be thought of as "object 1" and "object 2." The main point is that there are two of them, and the first one is the recipient (e.g. the person the cake is given to), while the second one is the thing that the action happens to (e.g. the cake that gets baked).
