"I have to go to work early tomorrow."

Translation: 我明天很早要上班。

[Arlen_Alexander]

Whats wrong with "明天很早我要上班"?

[Juan_KW]

Accepted now

[maartendoc]

Duo also accepts:

我明天要很早上班

[Rumactree]

I deliberated between two word orders.

我明天很早要上班

And

我明天要上班很早。

The first is accepted, the latter is not. I understand that time comes early in the sentence but I was thinking of it as 我明天要上班 得 很早

Just wanting to check whether the second sentence is bad Chinese, not the same meaning, or just wrong?

Thanks!

I'm not a native Chinese speaker, but my feeling is that your second sentence definitely needs the 得 in there to be grammatical. I'm not sure whether you could simply insert 得, or whether you would then need to reduplicate 上. (I am fairly certain that "...上班上得很早。" is grammatical. I am not sure whether "...上班得很早。" is ok, but I'm inclined to think that 得 must come right after the verb 上.)

我明天要很早上班。should also work IMO.

[roman2095]

That is accepted now

[NathanRasm]

明天我需要早去工作 is accepted too (without 很 and with some other unimportant differences).

[o-chefe]

Why 很 ?

[jamawn]

我明天很早要做工。 Can anybody tell me why this isn't accepted?
