[@AntitesisFilms]

This is amazing! Thanks a lot. Can you help me with this sentence? "医生没有看出小英得的是什么病" It has been giving me a headache for weeks, I can not fully understand it.

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

得 (de2) here is a verb for 得病 (to catch a sickness). 的 is here the marker of an adj clause. 小英得的(病)是什么病 = what sickness Little Yin caught.

Today I saw a sentence in a movie. There is a sentence like this “ 不如不遇见的好” can all you help me please why it's used 的好 here. Thanks so much

[@qianfeizhou8265]

Hi, there, thank you for your question. Here 好 simply means good, the pattern here is 不如+ v. + (o.) + 的好, which means “It would have been better do something”, therefore, 不如不遇见的好 means “It would have been better not meet (each other again).”

[@qianfeizhou8265]

Usually this pattern is meant to be used to express a sort of passive emotion or regrets. The movie is a romance I guess😊.

[@palm9351]

@@qianfeizhou8265 Yeah 😂. I got moved after watching it. Thanks a lot for your help. Because " 好” is the result of " 不遇见”，can it be said "不遇见得好” ？

[@qianfeizhou8265]

If you say 不遇见得好, it means they actually didn’t meet. But 不如不遇见的好 means actually they meet each other but they feel sad or regret. That is why I use “would have been better” since in this pattern, v + o between 不如 and 的好 is usually subjunctive.

非常感谢，很好的解释，但我的语法有问题

[@arminebner2846]

then it is impossible to make the distinctions made in min 4:40 when communicating verbally. The communication becomes non unequivocal. Thank you for the clarifications.

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

Yes, that’s true.

[@mountaintag]

I sometimes see 得直 rather than just 得, especially when there is an emotional reaction (eg crying). I don't know what this 直 means, but 她难过得直哭了 seems more natural to me than just 她难过得哭了. However 她高兴得直又唱又跳 and 她兴奋得直给我打电话 doesn't seem to work as well with the 直.

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

直 is short for 一直 = continuously. It is not a set part of this pattern and only works in some sentences like 他高兴得直对我笑。= He was so happy that he kept smiling at me.

[@qianfeizhou8265]

We usually don’t use 一直 along with 了, 了 is often involved in past tense. Hence, 她难过得直哭 is the proper one.

[@qianfeizhou8265]

她兴奋得直给我打电话 is ok, it means She was so excited that she kept calling me on the phone.

[@nugraharendra3004]

I think you got the pinyin wrong for 睡觉。Instead of Shuijiao, you wrote shuijue.

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

I think you are right. It was a mistake.

[@alekseev1986]

得 in 2nd tone: Danielle 难过得哭了！ 地 in 5th tone: Danielle 难过地哭了！

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

No both of them should be neutral tone / 5th tone

[@farhanmasud6660]

这是语法很难。
