What is linkage?

Serial sentence, also known as serial sentence, is a sentence pattern in Chinese.

When two or more verbs are used together, there is a relationship between them, such as order, way and purpose. There are no phonetic pauses and related words. In modern Chinese, it can generally be considered as the result of the occurrence and occurrence of actions (antecedents and consequences). For example, "walking the streets" and "flying to Beijing".

This sentence pattern can also be seen in literary works, such as becoming angry from embarrassment, saluting before the soldiers, and removing the disease with medicine, which is natural.

Serial sentences have the following characteristics:

Two or more verb phrases that are not mutually constituent are common predicates, but they have semantic relations of purpose and mode, cause and result, and beginning and end. Therefore, the position order of phrases cannot be reversed, and there can be no phonetic pause in the middle. They can be said separately from the topic list.
