Verb phrasesHSK 3

Actions in a row

To express two actions happening in sequence or with a purpose, simply place one verb phrase directly after another without any connecting word. A common mistake for learners is to insert 和 (hé) between verbs, but 和 is only used to link nouns.

構文

Subj. + Verb Phrase 1 + Verb Phrase 2
No conjunction is used; do not attempt to link verbs with 和.
