When to use Verb + 得 to Say How Well Something Is Done
Put 得 right after a verb, then an adjective phrase that says how the action is done or how well: 他跑得很快 “he runs fast”, 你说得很对 “what you said is right”. As in English “runs fast”, the comment comes after the verb, but Chinese must link the two with 得. The adjective usually takes 很, 太, 真 or 不; a bare adjective (跑得快) often sounds like a comparison.
他跑得很快。
He runs fast.
你说得很对。
You’re right. (literally: you said it very correctly)
我昨天睡得不好。
I didn’t sleep well last night.
你写汉字写得真好看！
Your Chinese characters look really nice!
