Resumo da lição
Subject + Verb 1 + Object/Place + Verb 2 + Object: A serial verb sentence uses one subject with two or more verbs in sequence, often showing route, method, or purpose.
In Chinese, closely connected actions can appear together without 和 or another connector: 我去商店买东西, 他坐地铁去学校上课. The verbs usually follow the real action order: go somewhere, then do something there; take a vehicle, then arrive somewhere. Use 然后 only when you want to separate steps more explicitly.
