문화적 배경

In modern Chinese work culture, being proactive is highly valued. Using this phrase shows you are ahead of the curve. It reflects the 'speed' of Chinese development where tasks are expected to be completed rapidly.

💡

The 'Le' Factor

Always try to pair `已经` with `了` at the end of the sentence. It makes you sound much more natural and signals the completion clearly.

⚠️

Don't Over-Repeat

If someone asks 'Did you do it?', you can just say '做了' (Done it). You don't always need '已经' if the context is clear.

What It Means

Think of 已经做 as your ultimate productivity badge. It tells the listener that the action you are talking about is no longer a 'to-do.' It is a 'done.' In English, we change the verb from 'do' to 'did.' In Chinese, we just add 已经 in front to show the time has passed. It is simple, direct, and very satisfying to say.

How To Use It

You usually place 已经做 before the noun or task you finished. Most of the time, you will add a at the end of the sentence. This acts like a period at the end of a completed event. For example, if you finished your homework, you say 已经做了作业. It is like saying, 'The doing of the homework? Yeah, that's in the past.'

When To Use It

Use this when you want to sound organized or helpful. Use it at work when your boss asks for a report. Use it at home when your partner asks if you fed the cat. It is perfect for texting because it is short. If a friend asks if you bought the movie tickets, a quick 已经做了 or 已经买好了 works wonders. It saves everyone time and worry.

When NOT To Use It

Don't use this for things that happen habitually. If you drink coffee every morning, don't say you 已经做 it unless you mean specifically today's cup. Also, avoid using it for things you are currently doing. If the task is still in progress, this phrase will confuse people. It is strictly for the 'mission accomplished' moments. Don't use it to sound arrogant, or you might seem like a teacher's pet!

Cultural Background

Chinese culture highly values efficiency and 'giving face' through reliability. By saying you have 已经做 something, you are showing you are dependable. It’s a way of putting others at ease. In a fast-paced city like Shanghai, being 'done' is the best status update you can give. It reflects a modern lifestyle where checking off tasks is a daily ritual.

Common Variations

You will often hear 已经做完了 (already finished doing). The adds an extra layer of 'completeness.' You might also hear 都已经做了, where adds a bit of emphasis. It’s like saying, 'I've ALREADY done it, so stop worrying!' Use these variations to sound more like a local and add flavor to your speech.

사용 참고사항

This is a highly versatile A1-level collocation. It is neutral in formality and safe to use in almost any context, from the boardroom to the living room. Just remember the 'le' at the end!

Action over Words

Not at all! You can use it for anything from 已经做了饭 (already made food) to 已经做了决定 (already made a decision).

Usually, '已经' needs a verb. If someone asks if you're done, you should at least say 已经做了 or 好了.

已经做 means you've performed the action. 做完 specifically emphasizes that the task is 100% finished.

No, this is strictly for the past or things just completed. For the future, you would use 会做 (will do).

Yes, it is neutral. To make it more polite to a superior, you might add 您好,我已经做了.

A simple 已经做了 or even just 做了 with a checkmark emoji is very common.

Technically you'd say 已经吃了, replacing '做' (do) with '吃' (eat). 已经做 is specifically for 'doing' a task.

Yes. 已经 must come before the verb . You cannot say 做已经.

People often shorten it to 搞定了 (gǎo dìng le), which is a more colloquial way to say 'it's handled' or 'done deal'.

Adding as in 都已经做了 adds emphasis, often used when you want to highlight that it was done a while ago.
