When to use Left and Right Location Words

Read 左 / 右 + 边 as a sentence tool, not just as vocabulary. First locate the main action or claim, then ask what 左 adds to it.

The station is on the left.

请向左转。

Please turn left.

Common traps

  • Do not translate 左 / 右 + 边 mechanically from English; check the Chinese word order first.
  • Keep 左 close to the part of the sentence it controls.
  • Do not overuse the pattern in every sentence; use it when it adds a clear role.
