下午好！
这个英语的句子中文怎么说？
I wish to see you.
另外，这个句子 对不对？
“ 你对我生气吗？”
谢谢你老是！

I wish to see you.用中文这样说：我希望见到你。:)wǒ xīwàng jiàndào nǐ.
“ 你对我生气吗？”应该说“你生我的气了吗？”

So, "to wish" and "to hope" have the same zhongwen verb:"希望".
Also, 生气 is a separable verb...i got it now.
老师，我还有一些问题。。。
I am confused with "lingqian" and "zhaoqian"...are they mere nouns or can be used as verbs...and when does the situation call for the use of those terms?
多谢老师！

August 20, 2010, 06:44 AM你好 Marlon,
Actually, "to wish" and "to hope" have some difference, like "to make a wish"许个愿（望） or "Wish you a happy birthday"祝你生日快乐. In the above two examples, we should translate "wish" as"愿望yuànwàng(noun)" and"祝zhù(verb)".
About "língqián" and "zhǎoqián", the former is a noun, while the latter is a phrase(verb+object), so we can add something after the verb"zhǎo=to give".
Here are some examples:
你有零钱吗？nǐ yǒu língqián ma?
我没有零钱，只有100的。wǒ méiyǒu língqiān, zhǐyǒu 100 de.
我给你100，你得找我钱。wǒ gěi nǐ 100, nǐ děi zhǎo wǒ qián.
两瓶可乐5块钱，我给你5块，不用找钱。liǎngpíng kělè 5 kuài qián, wǒ gěi nǐ 5 kuài, búyòng zhǎoqián.
gqián" and "zháoqián", the former is a noun, while the latter is a phrase(verb+object), so we can add something after the verb"zhǎo=to give".

You can translate the examples by yourself:)
