HSK 4 Connectors & compound sentences

于是

And so (consequence) with 于是

Structure (situation),于是 + next action

于是 (yúshì) links a situation to the action taken next, in a narrative: "(this happened), so (I did that)". 下雨了,于是我们没去 = "it started raining, so we didn’t go". Unlike 所以 (logical cause→effect), 于是 marks the SEQUENCE of events in a story.

Examples

  • 天tiān黑hēi了le,于yú是shì我wǒ们men回huí家jiā了le。

    It got dark, so we went home.

  • 他tā病bìng了le,于yú是shì没méi来lái上shàng班bān。

    It started raining, so we didn’t go.

Levels are indicative: they follow the standard Chinese Grammar Wiki (AllSet Learning) progression, not an official HSK 3.0 mapping. We never assign levels by eye.
