I have to say this again....you are the ONLY teacher to ACTUALLY axplain sentence structure. Now I completely understand why and how you order the words the way you do.

Thank you so much for putting first the direct translation (metaphrase); this is so much more useful to learners than the "true" translation (paraphrase).

@@EverydayChinese Could you maybe do a video about how teenagers and young adults speak when they hang out together, or one about all the little words as 哇 or 哦, than can be usefull in a conversation between friends? Just tell me of you've already done these kind of videos 😊
Thank you so much crystal your ways of breaking down sentence structure is very helpful even though it's still a little complicated teachers like you along with everybody in this comment section that's on the same journey as me gives me the motivation to keep going xie xie ni! much love from America to China❤

Thank you very much for this as it, indeed, helps us to think and speak like a native more readily. Also, thank you for the more complexed word order. And again, thanks for the literal translations. Thumb's up!!! I'm going to make sure to write these down.

谢谢 for your help ! How would you say “My sister has played the piano for 3 years?” Since it’s a duration of time, is it also at the end? Like 妹妹弹钢琴弹了三年
I am just beginning to learn Chinese, but this is very helpful. I am confused by the example sentence in the exercises at the end about the sister playing piano. Why does the verb 'play' appear twice in this sentence? Because of that, I'm not sure what order to put it in.
Subject and object are functions, where verb is a head. Basic grammar teaches you you can't blend kinds and functions. Either use noun phrase + verb + non phrase, or subject + predicate + object. You can also explain the syntax with agent + action + patient. But don't mix them up.
It's well know in Linguistics the terminology SVO (SOV, etc.) to describe each an every language pattern on planet Earth. Your so called "basic grammar" is just too basic to understand what they are doing is completely right and common.
@everydaychinese I'm a little confused about number 3. In the sentence, the verb is 弹了and the object is 钢琴. Therefore, according to the SVO structure, shouldn't the sentence read: 妹妹昨天在家里弹了弹钢琴两个小时? I'm sure I'm wrong about this but could you explain it please?
妹妹+弹+钢琴+ 弹了两个小时 It's the structure of “Subject + Verb + Object + Complement” 弹了两个小时 is the complement part. We need to repeat the verb + le. like, S+V+O+[V+了+period of time]. We explained in this video at 10:09 th-cam.com/video/VNtt8OYiyhc/w-d-xo.html
@@EverydayChinese Thanks for the explanation. I didn't know that V + le was also part of the verb complement but I get it. Do you have any videos explaining the use of the 了 particle specifically?
yes, yes I love yur class, I am acrtually watiching everyday....do more please,,,maybe change the tenses..various way...This irder is what i needed for a longgg time......xiexienia.....
Chinese has both right-branching and left-branching structures, although it is more left-branching than right-branching. And it's also related to the emphasied words when you speak.
老师，请问， 为什么这个句子 “妹妹弹钢琴在家里昨天弹了两个小时” the time element is towards the end of the sentence, 但是这个句子 “我昨天做数学作业做了两个小时” the time element is at the front of the sentence?
Hi again, would you please arrange correclty the following sentences, I'll appreciate it highly please. 1. 人是国你哪？ 2. 高兴你认识很。 3. 学习你什么？ 4. 吗汉语难？ 5. 难不汉字太。 6. 书谁这是的？ 7. 我的这是杂志朋友。 Waiting for your kind reply.

Why is the verb in set #3 duplicated? What is the rule on that and why? (starting at 9:56)
The sentence pattern there is called "verb-copying sentence" in Chinese Grammar.
The structure is: S + Verb1 + O + Verb1 + (得/了) + Complement

Chinese has both right-branching and left-branching structures, although it is more left-branching than right-branching. And it's also related to the emphasied words when you speak.
Everyday Chinese thank you very much
Excellent video. I am curious why we repeat the verb seemingly redundantly in one example.
Vraiment tres claire et efficace, merci pour ce petit moment de bonheur.
Its a bit confusing when we have the complement of result and adverbial "how" ,can i say他星期天在家里流利地说汉语？
老师请问，为什么这个句子最后面没有（了）：我昨天做书学作业做了两个小时（了）。谢谢老师
"我昨天做数学作业做了两个小时", “做了” 已经表示完成，句尾就不需要再用“了”了。
I have one question. Why did you use two verb at the same when describing the degree of the verb?
Thank you .this is grammar for hsk1or hsk2？
