Time Before the Verb

When to use Time Before the Verb
Chinese time words usually come early: after the subject or before the subject for emphasis. They do not normally sit at the very end like English adverbs can.
她明天来我家。
She is coming to my home tomorrow.
你现在有时间吗?
Do you have time now?
晚上我想喝茶。
In the evening I want to drink tea.
我们下午学习中文。
We study Chinese in the afternoon.
Common traps
- Do not leave the time word dangling at the end by default.
- Time can come before the subject when it sets the scene.
- Do not use 在 before every time word.
