|

|

好不容易 (hǎo bù róngyì) means "very difficult" or "really not easy." It is often used where the speaker wants to comment on the result of their hard work, something like "It was really hard for me to x, but then I realized y."
|
||||
|
||||
## Adverbial Structure with 才
|
||||
|
||||
Sentences using 好不容易 are often followed by [才 (cái)](https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/Expressing_lateness_with_%22cai%22), emphasizing the action has been completed only with great difficulty.
|
||||
|
||||
### Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Strange as it might seem, 好容易 has _the same meaning_ as 好不容易, and can be used interchangeably. 好不容易 is more common.
|
||||
|
||||
Subj. + 好 (不) 容易 + 才 + [Result]
|
||||
|
||||
The "result" part can be a simple phrase or a whole clause.
|
||||
|
||||
### Examples
|
||||
|
||||
- 她 _好容易_ **才** 减肥 成功。
|
||||
<!-- - Tā _hǎo róngyì_ **cái** jiǎnféi chénggōng. -->
|
||||
- She had a hard time losing weight and succeeded..
|
||||
- 我 _好不容易_ **才** 打通 了 银行 的 服务 热线 。
|
||||
<!-- - Wǒ _hǎobù róngyì_ **cái** dǎtōng le yínháng de fúwù rèxiàn. -->
|
||||
- It was no easy task to get through to the bank's customer service hotline.
|
||||
- 我们 _好不容易_ **才** 做完 这 个 项目,结果 合同 取消 了。
|
||||
<!-- - Wǒmen _hǎobù róngyì_ **cái** zuò wán zhège xiàngmù, jiéguǒ hétóng qǔxiāo le. -->
|
||||
- It was with great difficulty that we finally finished this project. But then the contract was canceled.
|
||||
- 我 _好不容易_ **才** 到 市中心, 发现 没 带 手机,只好 回去 拿。
|
||||
<!-- - Wǒ _hǎobù róngyì_ **cái** dào shì zhōngxīn, fāxiàn méi dài shǒujī, zhǐhǎo huíqù ná. -->
|
||||
- It was a lot of trouble to get to the city center, but then I realized I had forgotten my cell phone and had to go back and get it.
|
||||
- 金融 危机 之后 他 _好不容易_ **才** 找到 工作,现在 又 辞职 了 。
|
||||
<!-- - Jīnróng wéijī zhīhòu tā _hǎobù róngyì_ **cái** zhǎodào gōngzuò, xiànzài yòu cízhí le. -->
|
||||
- After the financial crisis, he had a hard time finally finding a job. And now he's resigning.
|
||||
- 他们 _好不容易_ **才** 爬 到 了 山顶,结果 下起 了 大雨 。
|
||||
<!-- - Tāmen _hǎobù róngyì_ **cái** pá dào le shāndǐng, jiéguǒ xià qǐ le dàyǔ. -->
|
||||
- With great difficulty, they finally climbed to the top of the mountain. And then it started raining heavily.
|
||||
- 老师 _好容易_ **才** 让 学生 订正 了 错误 的 句子。
|
||||
<!-- - Lǎoshī _hǎo róngyì_ **cái** ràng xuéshēng dìngzhèng le cuòwù de jùzi. -->
|
||||
- The teacher had a difficult time making the students correct the wrong sentences.
|
||||
|
||||
## Adjectival Structure (without 才)
|
||||
|
||||
### Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Verb / [Verb Phrase] + 好容易 / 好不容易
|
||||
|
||||
In this simpler structure we use 好(不)容易 by itself to express “with great difficulty”. At the end of the sentence particles such as 啊 or 哦 will also often be used to add emotion.
|
||||
|
||||
### Examples
|
||||
|
||||
- 要 完成 这 个 大 项目 _好不容易_ 啊。
|
||||
<!-- - Yào wánchéng zhège dà xiàngmù _hǎobù róngyì_ a. -->
|
||||
- Finishing this big project will not be an easy task.
|
||||
- 养 大 一 个 孩子 _好不容易_。
|
||||
<!-- - Yǎng dà yī gè háizi _hǎobù róngyì_. -->
|
||||
- Raising a child is not an easy thing to do.
|
||||
- 创办 一 个 公司 _好不容易_ 啊。
|
||||
<!-- - Chuàngbàn yī gè gōngsī _hǎobù róngyì_ a. -->
|
||||
- Starting a company isn't easy.
