Hey, it’s time to ……
28 April 2019
Do you have to wake your kids up to school in the morning ? do you need someone else to wake you up to work in the morning ? 😂👿
In english , you may say “wake up , its time to school / to work !”
🐼🍎In mandarin , we put a particle word “le” after a verb to indicate the situation changed and remind someone to prepare for it .
🐼🍎In mandarin we say 😁
“ qǐ chuáng le!(起床了)”literally means “to get up already .”
🐼🍎qǐ chuáng le!
起床了!
It’s time to get up !
🐼🍎“qǐ chuáng”
“qǐ”—rise up from low position to high position
“chuáng”—bed 🛏,
together means to get up /wake up .
☘️With this sentence pattern you can also say ,
🐼🍎“shàng xué le !”
上学了!
It’s time to go to school !
And
🐼🍎“shàng bān le!”
上班了!
It’s time to go to work !
☘️“shàng ”is used as a verb here, means to attend /to have .
☘️“xué ”means school while “bān ”means work , both are noun.
Around two hours later , you can say “chī fàn le (吃饭了)”to your colleagues 😄.
🎈Yes , “chī” means to eat , “fàn”means meal here .
It’s time to have a meal ! And rest a while , xiū xī xiū xi! ☘️☘️☘️
