() — (particle) used between a verb and a complement to indicate possibility or degree

Definição

得 (de) is a structural particle, not a verb — it sits between a verb and its complement to show what's possible, to what degree, or how something is done (吃得完, 看得见, 跑得快). Don't confuse it with 得 děi ("must") or the past/perfect marker 了.
