不停

Structure:

Subject + 不停 + 地 + Verb

Meaning:

“不停” is a little more versatile and can be placed both before the verb as an adverb, or after the verb as something that is somewhat like a complement. Either way, it means the same thing.

Examples:

1. 吃饭的时候他一句话也不说,不停地吃。

Chīfàndeshíhou tāyíjùhuà yěbùshuō, bùtínɡdìchī.

When he’s eating, he doesn’t say anything. He doesn’t stop eating.

2. 我今天很困,不停地打哈欠。

Wǒjīntiānhěnkùn, bùtínɡdìdǎhāqiɑn.

  I’m so tired today. I can’t stop yawning.

3. 感冒了,喉咙痛,还不停地留鼻水。

Gǎnmàole, hóulónɡtònɡ, háibùtínɡdì liúbíshuǐ.

    I got a cold. My throat hurts and my nose keeps running.
