Continuous action verb construction
The main idea here is that the action won’t just happen and stop immediately; it will continue for a while.
Verb 1 + 着 + Verb 2
我 读 ，你 听 着 。
Wǒ dú, nǐ tīng zhe.
I’ll read, and you listen.
我们 做 ，你们 看 着 。
Wǒmen zuò, nǐmen kàn zhe.
We will do it, and you all watch.
她 喜欢 站 着 吃饭
Tā xǐhuan zhàn zhe chīfàn.
She likes to eat standing up.
他 笑 着 说 “对不起”
Tā xiào zhe shuō “duìbuqǐ”.
Smiling, he said, “I’m sorry.”
Note: If you want to make a sentence where both verbs are action verbs (neither is truly a state), then you don’t want this pattern; you want 一边⋯⋯，一边⋯⋯ (yībiān…, yībiān…).
