Learn Chinese from the origin: 很/very/degree adverb/HSK 1 words/Beginners

Hello, today we are going to learn the character Heng. The ancient Chinese character for Heng evolves from the image of a person glaring at others, which extends to the meaning of defying. And the ancient Chinese character develops to the character Geng nowadays. And in the ancient time, the character's writing changes with different radicals and develops to different characters. For example, Heng, which means hate, Heng, which means ruthless, and Heng, very. And that's the character we are going to learn today, Heng. Now read after me, Heng, Heng, Heng, quite, very. Heng could be used before the adjective to express the extent and function as a predicate. For example, Beautiful, pretty. She's very beautiful. But pay attention that we don't say Here means is. The reason is that already functions as the predicate. So we don't use here. We just say Next. Cold. It's very cold today. Can be also used before the verbs that express the feelings to express the extent. For example, like She likes running very much. The negative form She hates running. Okay, that's all for today. See you next time.
