Adjectives as the predicate (no 是)
From the lesson “The apples here are really affordable!”
Structure
Subject + (很 / 真 / 不 / 太) + Adjective
形容词可以直接作谓语,前面可用程度副词或否定副词。 An adjective can be the predicate by itself, with no 是: 我的房间不大 (My room isn't big). In a plain statement, put 很 before the adjective: 那个苹果很好吃. 真 (really), 太 (too) and 不 (not) go in the same place.
