Re:To John Yin
i'm so unhappy that my first reply is disappeared.the website is so ***.

Maybe the concern of you is not a question for a native speaker.But it is hard to explain clearly to a foreigner.Let me try best and wish that it is helpful for you.

The sentence could be say in two forms:
"you are cruel"
Äã ºÜ ²ÐÈÌ.

"you are a cruel man"
Äã ÊÇ Ò»¸ö ²ÐÈÌ µÄ ÈË
ni3 shi4 yi3 ge4 can2 ren3 de1 ren2.

The 'ºÜ' is a adv and describe the degree of "cruel". It is like the mean of 'very'." you are cruel" translate exactly in chinese should be "Äã²ÐÈÌ". There are often need to add a adv.So we say "ÄãºÜ²ÐÈÌ" or"ÄãÌ«²ÐÈÌ".

I cannot know how to explain the mean of 'ÊÇ'.In a word.there should be a noun. follow up. the grammar is ÊÇ+(adj.)+noun. so in the 2nd example.It became 'ÄãÊDzÐÈ̵ÄÈË'.

'µÄ' is also a adv. it is often used between the adj. and the noun.

another example:

It is (very) beautiful.
Ëü ºÜ ƯÁÁ
ta1 hen3 piao4 liang2.

It is a beautiful follower.
Ëü ÊÇ Ò»¶ä ƯÁÁ µÄ »¨.
ta1 shi4 yi1duo3 piao4 liang2 de2 hua3


i don't know whether you can catch on . Through this case,i think it is diffcult to let a foreigner learn our native language.

To John Yin
Thank you, John Yin.

How come in 你很残忍, the word "shi" doesn't have to be in there? And what does 的 mean?

Re:How do you write,
"You are cruel" can be tranlated into "ÄãÊDzÐÈ̵Ä".

"²Ð±©"is a more formal word.
And "Äú" means you in a very polite way, which might be too polite in such a sentence.

"ÄãÊDzÐÈ̵Ä" can be pronounced as "ni shi can ren de".

Hope it helps.
