How to use le in Chinese – 怎么用“了” – Basic Chinese Grammar – Elementary/Intermediate Chinese
This video is about how to use 了 (le).
There are many videos online teaching how to use 了，but I promise you, this one is the one that can really help you fully understand 了 and you will start your first step in building a Chinese-thinking mind from today!
了 is one of the most complicated Chinese words.
It has three usages:
01:07 了 in set phrase
【Some set phrases include:
太 + adj. + 了 (tài + adj. + le, extremely, so, very)；
adj. + 死了 (adj. + sǐ le, extremmely, so adj. that I could die)；
adj. + 极了 (adj. + jí le, extremely, super)；
可 + adj. + 了(kě + adj + le, very)；
就要/快要/快/要 + v. + 了 (jiù yào/kuài yào/kuài/yào + v. + le, be about to, very soon)，
别 + v. + 了 (bié + v. + le, stop doing)，
已经 + v./adj. + 了 (yǐ jīng + v./adj. + le, already)】
02:33 了 indicates change of state
04:56 了 emphasises completion of an action
The most important idea starts from 06:35. It can help you finally understand how to use 了.
