Vocabulary in context
These short sentences and mini-scenes make the lesson's additional words usable instead of leaving them as isolated cards.
Step 4 · Sentence patterns
Build usable sentences
Study the pattern, then replace the example information with details from your own situation.
Separable verbs
V-O / V + aspect or quantity + OSome common verbs behave like a verb-object phrase, so aspect, time or quantity can appear between the two parts.
Time adverbs for sequence and immediacy
才 / 马上 / 先 / 一会儿 / 刚 / 刚刚 / 一直 + VPPlace these adverbs before the action to locate it in a sequence or show recency, delay, immediacy or continuity.
把 and 被 as participant markers
把 + affected object + VP；被 + agent + VP把 introduces an object that will be affected by the action; 被 introduces the doer in a passive relation. This Lesson uses them to make service-handling steps and responsibility explicit.
把 sentences with a concrete result
S + 把 + O + V + location / recipient / resultUse 把 when an action clearly changes, moves, gives or otherwise affects a known object.
Sequential clauses
先…，再 / 然后…Use 先 for the first step and 再 or 然后 for the following step.
