libertango Posted October 29, 2005 at 04:07 AM Report Posted October 29, 2005 at 04:07 AM I often discover simple things that I still am unable to express clearly. When a taxi driver was stopping one building short of where I wanted to get off, I wanted to say "It's the next one", but couldnt find the words. For example, if you have some books on a shelf, and you ask someone to get one down. They point to one and you want to say "It's the next one" or "It's the next one the right" Any help is greatly appreciated. Quote

They point to one and you want to say "It's the next one" or "It's the next one the right" 再往右边的那一本书就是(我要的书) Quote
Ferno Posted October 29, 2005 at 05:31 AM Report Posted October 29, 2005 at 05:31 AM it's always "一个"? Wouldn't the measure word change? (ie 一本 for a book) Quote

Quest Posted October 29, 2005 at 10:10 AM Report Posted October 29, 2005 at 10:10 AM 不是这栋,再下一栋 不是这本,隔壁(傍边,右边,左边,上面,下面,前面,后面)那本才是 Quote
