The Chinese word 过来 (guòlái) is a verb that means "to come over" or "to come here." It is composed of two characters: 过 (guò), which means "to cross over" or "to pass by," and 来 (lái), which means "to come." The word 过来 can be used in a variety of contexts, such as:* 你能过来一下吗?(Nǐ néng guòlái yīxià ma?) - Can you come over here for a moment?* 我马上过来。(Wǒ mǎshàng guòlái.) - I'll be right over.* 他从那边过来了。(Tā cóng nàbiān guòlái le.) - He came over from over there.The word 过来 can also be used in a figurative sense, to mean "to change" or "to transform." For example:* 他的想法已经过来了。(Tā de xiǎngfǎ yǐjīng guòlái le.) - His thinking has changed.* 他们的关系已经过来了。(Tāmen de guānxi yǐjīng guòlái le.) - Their relationship has changed.The word 过来 is a common word in Chinese, and it is important for HSK learners to understand its meaning and usage.
