Language Points |
|
The adverb yě function as
an adverbial modifier before the verb. Unlike their
English equivalents, |
|
Chinese adverbs are always placed before a verb.
E.g."我也很好 wǒ yě hěn hǎo”， “我们都是服 |
|
务员wǒ men dōu shì fú wù yuán", As an adverbial
modifier both yě and dōu are followed by
a verb. |

Handshaking |
|
Customarily Chinese friends, colleagues and
acquaintances shake hands with one another when they |
|
first meet or reunite after long years of
separation. Handshaking between men and women may be |
|
symbolically brief, but the initiative can be taken
by either side although male eagerness often
prevails. |
