Doubled Verbs: 看看, 看一看, 看了看, 休息休息
Double a verb (看看, 想一想, 休息休息) to make an action sound quick and relaxed, and use 看了看 for a quick action that already happened.
문형
AA (看看); A一A (看一看); A了A (看了看); ABAB (休息休息)
Doubling a verb makes the action short and casual, “have a quick look” instead of “look”.
我想一想。
When to use Doubled Verbs: 看看, 看一看, 看了看, 休息休息
Repeat an action verb to make the action short, light or casual: 看 “look” becomes 看看 “have a quick look”. One-syllable verbs double as AA (看看, with the second syllable in a light tone) or A一A (看一看), which mean the same. Two-syllable verbs repeat as a whole word, ABAB: 休息休息, 介绍介绍. The doubled verb goes where the verb normally goes, and an object can follow: 看看书.
你看看这个。
Take a look at this.
周末我想在家休息休息。
This weekend I want to rest a bit at home.
你给我们介绍介绍你的家吧。
Tell us a little about your family.
我们出去走走吧。
Let’s go out for a little walk.
흔한 실수
- Say 休息休息, not 休休息息: to mean “do it a bit”, a two-syllable verb repeats as ABAB; AABB is mainly for adjectives (高高兴兴).
- Say 他看了看我, not 他看看了我: in A了A, 了 goes between the two verbs.
- Don’t double a verb for an action in progress: say 我在看书, not 我在看看书.
