Jonathan Foreveralone Posted June 1, 2012 at 09:53 AM Report Posted June 1, 2012 at 09:53 AM Does anyone have a good resource (Webpage, Grammar book, etcetera) to explain "Separable disyllabic verbs"? The NPCR 3 Lesson 27 only has a few examples and I haven't been able to find another explanation. Quote

malanting Posted June 1, 2012 at 10:53 AM Report Posted June 1, 2012 at 10:53 AM I guessed it right. There no specific rule concerning this. Some of the verbs can be separated and some can't. It's easy for a native speaker to tell so you have to nurture the "language sense". Quote
Jonathan Foreveralone Posted June 2, 2012 at 11:02 PM Author Report Posted June 2, 2012 at 11:02 PM Thanks li3wei1 Thank you for your link. This is a cut and past from NPCR3 page 16 - 17. http://www.xcn-chine...ludeid=&siteid= which I already had. <a name="firstHeading1"> I found a better explanation for the explanation I was looking for on Chinese Grammar Wiki Separable verb and List of separable verbs Quote
