③try to do something;
④express an easy and casual mood.

语法点: Verb + Verb + Object
In Chinese, Separable Verbs(离合动词: 聊天, 跑步, and 帮忙) consist of a verbal element and a nominal element (Verb+Object: 聊+天, 跑+步, and 帮+忙).
To change such separable verbs into reduplicated ones, you only need to reduplicate the verbal parts(聊, 跑, and 帮).
  1. Wǒ xiǎng hé wǒ de lǎo péngyǒu liáo liáotiān.
    我想和我的老朋友
    我想和我的老朋友X
    I want to chat with my old friend.

    能让你更有活力。
    Running can make you more energetic.
  3. Qǐng bāng bāngmáng!

语法点: Verb + Verb | V一V | V了V | V了一V
Monosyllabic verbs can be reduplicated in different formats, such as Verb + Verb, V一V, V了V, and V了一V.
  1. Gěi wǒ jiǎng jiǎng nàgè chéngshì ba.
    给我讲讲那个城市吧。(V & V)
    Tell me about that city.
  2. Wǒ xiǎng qǐng tā bāng yī bāngmáng.
    我想请他帮一帮忙。(V一V)

构字 Formation of Hanzi
【4 HSK Characters: 快, 块, 决, 缺】
夬(Guài/Jué) is not a commonly used character. When used as a component in characters, 夬 can represent pronunciations, for example: 快(kuài), 决(jué). It can also express the meaning of "parted", for example: 缺(quē) means "imperfect, incomplete".
Note: 夬(Guài) is one of the 64 diagrams in "The Book of Changes"(《易经》).
