linguaholic Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 连...都 sentences are very common, I agree. Let me provide some examples. Hopefully they can help you to understand the "structure" better.sure ! :karate:连六岁的孩子都参加了这次比赛。 // Even six year old children participated in this competition.我们家什么都是黑的， 连墙也是黑的。 // At our home, everything is black, even the walls.她连星期天也不休息。 // Even on sundays he is not having a rest.哥哥连上课都睡觉。 // My big brother even sleeps during class.purpose of the construction is highlighting the importance of certain elements in a sentence. it corresponds to the word "even" and if negative, "not even".
