Dear friends,

The video lesson today is about some 2-character Chinese adjective words: 好笑(funny), 感人(touching), 舒服(comfortable), and 滿意(satisfied), those adjective words combining with the adverb character 很(very), and turn to be 很好笑(very funny), 很感人(very touching), 很舒服(very comfortable), and 很滿意(very satisfied). Please watch the following video for the lesson today:



The first phrase:

很好笑
hěn hǎo-xiào

很(very) + 好笑(funny)

the 2-character word:

好笑

The second phrase:

very touching
很感人
hěn gǎn-rén

the 2-character word:

which is the combination of 2 words:

感動(to move; to touch) + 人(people)

reduce(abbreviation) the 2-character verb word 感動(to move; to touch) as 1-character verb word 感(to move; to touch), and combining with the character 人(people) to form a 2-character modern Chinese word 感人(touching people).

Let's extend the phrase:

大家都很滿意
Dà-jiā dōu hěn mǎn-yì

大家(everyone) + 都(all) + 很(very) + 滿意(satisfied)

note: here the adverb 都(all) usually added after 大家(everyone), as the English phrase 大家都(everyone is).


the 2-character modern Chinese word:

everyone
