Describing how with 得 — Chinese grammar (HSK 2)

Verb + 得 + (很) + Adjective

To say how well or how fast something is done, put 得 (de) right after the verb and follow it with an adjective: 说得很好 (speaks very well). This replaces English adverbs ending in "-ly". If there is an object, mention it before the verb (or repeat the verb) so that 得 still sits directly after the verb: 他汉语说得很好.

Examples

他汉语说得很好。 Tā Hànyǔ shuō de hěn hǎo.	He speaks Chinese very well.
她写得很慢。 Tā xiě de hěn màn.	She writes slowly.
我们玩得很高兴。 Wǒmen wán de hěn gāoxìng.	We had a great time.

Tip: Nothing can come between the verb and 得; 说汉语得很好 is wrong.
