HOW TO TALK ABOUT CONSEQUENCES

Mastery
Preview
造成    (zào chéng) to cause; to give rise to [verb]
  • structure: subject A + 造成 + B situation
  • 造成 is a verb. The object of 造成 is usually a two-syllable noun denoting an undesirable or unfavorable result.​ 

Examples:
1. 他的政治学教授这个学期上课经常迟到,造成很坏的影响。= His political science professor has frequently been late to class this semester, which has had a very negative impact.
2. 
坏影响已经造成了,你只能好好表现,让大家慢慢忘了吧。= The damage has already been done. All you can do is be on your best behavior and let everyone slowly forget about it.
3. 
[TEXTBOOK] 还有汽车,不但要用很多能源,而且还对空气造成严重污染。

后果    (hòu guǒ) consequence; fallout; aftermath [noun]
  • 喝酒以后开车会有非常严重的后果。= Driving a car after drinking will have very serious consequences.
  • 生病了以后马上去看医生,不然的话后果可能很不好。= After you get you sick you should see the doctor right away, otherwise the consequences might be bad.
  • [TEXTBOOK] 还要让大家知道,如果再继续浪费能源,继续污染环境,后果会不堪设想。
​
不堪设想    (bù kān shè xiǎng) [of consequences] too ghastly to contemplate; unimaginable; extremely bad or dangerous
  • 成语 (four character idiom): a set expression meaning that a situation is extremely, unimaginably bad.​

Examples:
  • 已经三个月没下雨了,再不下,后果会不堪设想。= It’s been three months since the last time it rained. If it doesn’t rain soon, I can’t imagine what will happen.
  • 你再整天玩电脑,不学习,这样下去,前途 (qián tú) 不堪设想。= If you keep on playing with computers instead of studying, I can’t imagine what your future will be like.
  • [TEXTBOOK] 还要让大家知道,如果再继续浪费能源,继续污染环境,后果会不堪设想。

轻松轻松    (qīng sōng qīng sōng) "to relax" [reduplicated adjective acting as verb]
  • This is an example of an adjective that can be reduplicated like a verb.

Adjective Reduplication: There are two ways of reduplicating an adjective like 轻松: a “AABB” form and a “ABAB“ form.
  • The reduplicated form “AABB” is 轻轻松松. This form of reduplication has a “heightening” or stressing effect.
  • The reduplicated form “ABAB”” is 轻松轻松. This form of reduplication causes the adjective to behave like a verb. In this case, 轻松轻松 = “to have some fun or do whatever to make one feel more relaxed.”​

Examples:
1. AABB:这次考试不难,她轻轻松松地就考了100分。= This time the exam wasn’t difficult. She easily scored a 100.
2. ABAB:快来!来凉快凉快吧。= Come here quickly to cool down. [凉快凉快 = make oneself cool]
3. 爷爷今年过八十岁生日,我们应该好好儿地热闹热闹。= This  year is Grandpa’s eightieth birthday. We should have a big celebration and have a great time. [热闹热闹 = to make the celebration a lively festive occasion]
4. 
This kind of reduplication is sometimes preceded by the verb 使,让 or 叫:
  • 你把这个好消息告诉他,使/让/叫他高兴高兴。= Tell him the good news to cheer him up. [使/让/叫他高兴高兴 = to make him happy]
5. [TEXTBOOK]今天是星期六,大家都想轻松轻松... [轻松轻松 = to have some fun or do whatever to make one feel more relaxed]​

从...做起    (cóng...zuò qǐ) to start with...
  • structure: “subject + 从+ object + 做起”
  • 从...做起 means “to start with.” 起 means “to begin.”

Examples:
  • 保护环境应该从节约能源做起。= Protecting the environment should start with the conservation of energy.
  • 男女平等应该从日常生活,懂每个家庭做起。= Equality between men and women should begin with everyday life and every family.

从小地方做起    to start from a small place
  • [TEXTBOOK]我们应该从小地方做起,比如随手关灯,节约用水。= We should start small. For example, we should turn off the lights [whenever we don’t need them] and conserve water.

可不是吗?    (kě bú shì ma?) isn't that so? how true!
  • Used to express agreement with another speaker. It is used in spoken Chinese.
  • A:听说雪梅的舅舅和舅妈感情特别好。/ B:可不是吗,他们从来没吵过架。= A: I hear that Xuemei’s uncle and aunt love each other very much. / B: That’s very true. They’ve never quarreled with each other.
  • A:最近能量危机越来越严重。/ B:可不是吗?我们每个人都应该尽可能节约能愿。从小地方做起,比如随手关灯,节约用水,少开车等等。= A: The energy crisis has been getting even worse recently. / B: How true! We should all do our best to save energy, starting with small things like turning off the lights behind us, conserving water, driving less, and so on.
  • [TEXTBOOK]可不是吗,太浪费了。

阴谋    (yīn móu) conspiracy
  • 这个阴谋太大了! = This conspiracy is too big!

吧...吧...    (ba...ba...) suggests two alternatives
  • “alternative 1 + 吧, merits of alternative 1, alternative 2 + 吧, merits of alternative 2”
  • This construction, usually found in spoken Chinese, suggests two alternatives. It is used to indicate that the speaker is in a dilemma and unable to make a decision.

Examples:
1. 我的车旧了,最近老有问题。买新的吧,没有钱,不买新的吧,旧车又不可靠,真难办。= My car is old, and lately it’s been having many problems. I could buy a new one, but I don’t have the money. I could keep the old one, but it’s not reliable. I don’t know what to do.
2. 住在成里吧,上,下班,购物都很方便,可是空气不太好;住在城外吧,环境好,空气新鲜,但做什么都不太方便。= If you live in town, commuting and shopping are convenient, but the air quality is not so good. If you live in the suburbs, the environment is good and the air is fresh, but everything is quite inconvenient.
3. [TEXTBOOK]可是怎么去呢?坐出租车吧,太贵,而且也没意思;坐公交车吧,人太多,太挤。= But how should they get there? Taking a cab would be too expensive, and boring, too. Public transportation is too full of people, too crowded. Ke Lin comes up with an idea--biking!
