Tony24 Posted January 27, 2019 at 05:57 AM Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 at 05:57 AM 大家好！ I’ve recently come across this sentence in one of my textbooks and haven’t come up with a solution yet. Here is the sentence : 说话的人，以前知道你帮助了他。 The whole phrase is not very clear to me but what puzzles me most is its first part, I mean 说话的人. Any help? 我很需要你们的帮助啊！ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyJonesLocker Posted January 27, 2019 at 06:21 AM Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 at 06:21 AM I think you need context here or the preceding sentences. 说话的人 can have several meanings depending on context . Perhaps take a photo of the paragraph? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
889 Posted January 27, 2019 at 10:01 AM Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 at 10:01 AM Ellipsed in context, maybe: [咱们刚刚]说话的人，以前[我]知道你帮助了他 。 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roddy Posted January 27, 2019 at 04:35 PM Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 at 04:35 PM The speaker, although as indicated above, it may depend on other context. This looks like a listening multiple choice answer, at a guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beelzebro Posted January 28, 2019 at 08:49 AM Report Share Posted January 28, 2019 at 08:49 AM 说话的人 means "the speaker" or "the person that speaks/spoke". You'll also see 说话人 which has the same meaning "the speaker“, and 听话人 "the listener". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
