Notes: Used in this sense as a preposition, 给 can (1) introduce the object of an action with the meaning of ”for” or ”to”, (2) introduce an agent to express the passive. It may occur after the main verb when the focus is more on the object of the verb. For example, 我送给你 'I am giving this to you.' It may only be used in this sense for a small number of verbs (Norman 1988, p. 131; Guoyu '給' gěi prep 2; Unihan '給'). -
