Hey, can anyone explain the use of 对 and and 久how they fits in the structure of a sentences.

Thanks

TrueTears:
I don't really know what you mean by the "use" of 对 and 久, but nonetheless here are some examples of how to use them in sentences.

对: This word has many meanings...

eg, 我对你在说话 (I am talking to you)

你做对了 (You did it correctly)

久: Again many meanings to this word...

eg, 你还有多久才做完? (How long do you have until you finish?)

历史悠久 (Rich history)

To uses these 2 words in the same sentence: 我对他说: “你还有多久才能帮我?” (I said to him, "how long until you can help me?")

chuckjefster90:
thanks true tears,

so with 久 it is to show extent of time?

how wud u say for example, i have learnt chinese for 2 years?

Mao:
我学习了两年的中文。

久 is used similar to 'long time' in English: I've studied Chinese for a long time, 我学习中文已经很久了。 [note, 已经 carries a similar meaning to "already"/"so far"/"up to now"]

chuckjefster90:
ahh kk, thanks

 i am also confused on how to use 次
do u use it to say how many times u have done something?

for example how wud u say i played soccer 3 times yesterday?
