question on 然后 and 以后
大家好
I am getting confused with 然后 and 以后
To my understanding:
然后 – and then?
以后- after/afterwards
But then can we say:
a. 我吃完了以后要去朋友家
b. 我先吃饭然后去朋友家
If so, what is the difference?
a.回家了以后你打算做什么?
b. 那你先要回家了然后打算做什么?
Same with this.
a.他把杯子摔在地上,然后扬长而去
b. 他把杯子摔在地上以后他扬长而去
谢谢

Question on some short sentences
Hey guys
Okay very simple sentences but I believe I am just confusing myself.
I want a job in China
Wo3 yao4 zai4 zhong1guo2 gong1zuo4
我要在中国工作
is this correct? 在中国 (location) is always placed after 要 and before a verb which in this case is 工作 to work, would that be correct?
Or is it just because words like 要, 想 the preposition phrase goes after?

confusion on sentence structure and 得 complement degree
大家好
in Chinese I was told the general sentence structure when adverbs are used can be
subject + adverb + verb + object
Okay fair enough but then when we use the complement of degree structure using 得 , so for instance:
你的中文说得很好
Is 很好 not an adverb in this sentence?
Or is it that the point of this 得 construction to describe how you are performing the particular action? in this case how my 中文 speech is?
and then the Subject + adverb + verb + object construction is talking about for instance when we say
你明天去中国
in the above sentence 明天 is the adverb??
对不起,我可能惦记得太多。
多谢大家
sorry just to add in 你的中文说得很好, if 很好 is an adverb, im confused then why it would be at the back of the sentence, but if its because of the 得 structure and it is NOT an adverb then i guess that makes sense..

的 usage question
大家好
大家可以帮我吗
In the following phrase:
喝可乐的小王高兴
How would i make this a sentence and add things like where it took place and at what time, for instance I know if i structure it like this:
小王昨天在北京饭店高兴得喝可乐
I can put in time and place, but i am confused when i structure it the other way how to make it a sentence and put in time/location.
谢谢大家

simple question on words like 哪里, 哪儿 , 这里 , 这儿
大家好
with Words like 哪里, 哪儿 , 这里 , 这儿, in mainland China i have heard its more common to use these words with 儿 at the end instead of 里。
However i personally prefer to say these words with 里 at the end, will I still be understood in all places in China? Or is using 里 very uncommon?
谢谢!

question using 是 。。。的
大家好
I'm a bit confused with the 是。。。。的. My understanding is that is used to express actions that occured in the past.
So i know this is a bit of an odd example but could i then say.
我昨天第五次去厕所了
Yesterday I went to the toilet 5 times.
Can i use it this way? Or does it have to be in response to a question like
你昨天多少次去厕所了吗? and then
我昨天第五次去厕所了
Furthermore can you use it to express an even in the past such as
你是什么时候买了那个笔的?
我是在大学买了这个笔的
yeah, so my questions are am i using 是。。。。的 it right here and does it have to be in response to a question.
非常感谢
sorry guys i forgot to put
我是昨天第五次去厕所了
你是昨天多少次去厕所了吗? and then
我是昨天第五次去厕所了
yeah i forgot to put the 是 in.
天哪
我需要去睡觉

Time/Place sentence structure confusion, help greatly appreciated please
大家好 我需要问东西 I am having a bit of struggles with the time/place aspect in mandarin. I'll give you examples of what i mean:
In the afternoon at home。 I like to drink Cola.
我下午在家喜欢喝可乐 - one way to say it
下午在家我喜欢喝可乐
我喜欢下午在家喝可乐
Okay so, to my understanding: 下午在家 time & place must be before the verb 喝. Now it can be after 喜欢 which is also a verb .. which confused me at first but i was told because the focus on this sentence is on 'drinking' not 'liking'.
Anyway but now what confuses me is this next sentence
我要在北京工作
I want to work in Beijing
Now 工作 to work, is the verb here. However why is it i cannot then restructure as follows
在北京我要工作
我在北京要工作
?? Isn't this the same as the first example? i put 我喜欢下午在家 and it is correct so why isn't 我在北京要??
Help would be appreciated, i feel like this is something i really have to understand, the time and location structure is confusing me a lot.
非常感谢 (真大)
:)
