weigeren Posted November 2, 2012 at 05:14 PM Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 at 05:14 PM In the context a man is asking a woman for her to wait a little more, to which she replies : 好吧!半个小时总够吧？so "Ok, half an hour will be enough, wouldn' it ?" but I wonder about the 总 there. Could anyone provide some other example sentence using 总 in this way ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
