Features: The Handbook of 380 Chinese Verbs is a learning tool designed for learners with a certain foundation in Chinese. It can also be used as supplementary teaching material or for self-study. The Handbook of 380 Chinese Verbs selects 380 of the most commonly used Chinese verbs from a wide range of vocabulary, grouping verbs with similar meanings together. Through examples and comparative explanations, it aims to improve learners' ability to use Chinese. The handbook is divided into two parts: the first part explains monosyllabic verbs, and the second part explains disyllabic verbs, with slight differences in format between the two parts. The monosyllabic verbs section includes both phrases and sentences in the examples, while the disyllabic verbs section only includes sentences. Each part is arranged in order of Pinyin. The Handbook of 380 Chinese Verbs focuses on analyzing and contrasting easily confused meanings rather than providing a comprehensive explanation of all meanings for each verb. Therefore, in this aspect, it differs from other reference books. The handbook uses a bilingual (Chinese-English) teaching method, with each example sentence annotated with Pinyin, which will help learners understand and master basic vocabulary and sentence structures.
