When to use Verb + 得/不得 for “Can” and “Must Not”

Verb + 不得 usually does not talk about ability. It says an action is not allowed or not wise: 学语言急不得 (you can’t rush it), 这件事马虎不得 (you mustn’t be careless), 电脑正在更新，现在关不得 (don’t turn it off now). Verb + 得 is the positive form, “it’s all right to,” and usually appears in a question like 走得走不得？ and its answer.

这件事马虎不得，你一定要认真检查。

You mustn’t be careless about this; be sure to check it carefully.

电脑正在更新，现在关不得。

The computer is updating, so don’t turn it off now.

这个玩笑开不得，他会不高兴的。

You mustn’t make that joke; he’ll be upset.

The door has just been painted, so don’t touch it yet.

Частые ошибки

  • In warnings like 急不得 and 去不得, verb + 不得 means “must not, shouldn’t,” not “unable to”; for ability use verb + 不了 or 不能.
  • In this pattern 得 is pronounced dé (不得 bù dé), not the neutral de of 跑得快.
  • Verb + 得 on its own is rare; it mainly answers a question like 去得去不得？
