Grammar Phrase structure A sentence in which the main element of the predicate is a noun, a nominal construction or a numeral-measure word is called a sentence with nominal predicate. The verb 是 is, as a rule, not used in a sentence of this kind.
Example:
- 今天 5月20号 : Today is May 20th, instead of 今天5月20号.
- 明天 星期三 : Tomorrow is Wednesday, instead of 明天星期三.
Phrase structure : question An affirmative-negative question is another form of question which is made by juxtaposing the affirmative and negative forms of the predicative verb or adjective.
Example:
- 今年 是不是 1999年? Are we in 1999?

- 你 姓不姓 张? Is you family name Zhang?
- 你 叫不叫 张京生? Is you name Zhang Jingsheng?
