Grammar Guru: Verb Placement

In Cantonese, the verb typically comes after the subject and before the object in a sentence. This means that when talking about actions at the hospital, make sure to place the verb in the correct position for clear communication. For example, ‘I see the doctor’ would be ‘我見醫生 (ngo5 gin3 ji1 sang1)’.
