Questions & Answers about míngtiān tā huì qù gōngsī gōngzuò.

What is the word order here? Can I move the time word?

Chinese typically uses: Time + Subject + Modal + Verb (motion) + Place + Verb (purpose). So 明天 她 会 去 公司 工作. You can also put the time after the subject: 她 明天 会 去 公司 工作. Avoid placing the time after the modal: 她 会 明天 去 公司 工作 sounds awkward.

What does 会 mean here? Is it “will” or “can”?

Here 会 means “will/likely to,” a prediction about the future. It does not mean “can/know how.” The time word 明天 and the verb 去 make the future/prediction reading clear.

Is 会 required to talk about the future? Could I say 明天她去公司工作?

Yes, you can say 明天她去公司工作. Chinese often relies on time words to indicate the future. Nuances:

• 会: prediction/expectation (She will probably/it’s expected she will).
• Bare verb: scheduled/arranged plan.
• 要: intention/plan or inevitability: 她明天要去公司工作.

How do I negate this sentence?

• Simple refusal/decision: 她明天不去公司工作。
• Predicted non-occurrence: 她明天不会去公司工作。
• Past (didn’t go): 她昨天没去公司工作。

How do I make it a yes–no question?
