Destination Phrase

This follows the standard Subject + Auxiliary Verb + Verb + Destination pattern.

  • 我 (wǒ): I
  • 想 (xiǎng): want to / would like to
  • 去 (qù): to go
  • 机场 (jīchǎng): airport

Auxiliary Verbs

想 (xiǎng) acts as an auxiliary verb indicating a desire or intention. It is placed directly before the main action verb 去 (qù) to express 'want to go'.

Tone Sandhi

Because both 我 (wǒ) and 想 (xiǎng) are third-tone syllables, the first one changes to a second tone when spoken. You will pronounce it as 'wó xiǎng'.
