Modifies verbs or adjectives?[edit]

@The dog2 Which is it? The definition line says "verbs" but the table says "adjectives". — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 19:45, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Justinrleung: Oh, in Singapore it modifies adjectives. In China, I don't think it modifies anything. If you listen to it here (5:47), it's used in the equivalent of 是這樣. The dog2 (talk) 19:49, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
@The dog2: So what's with the "modifies verbs" label? — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 19:53, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Justinrleung: Oh sorry, my mistake there. I just copied and pasted from 照生, which is often used in the same situation. The dog2 (talk) 20:28, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
