上个
When we want to talk about something that happened or existed before the current one, we use 上个 (shàng ge). Think of it like saying 'last' or 'previous' in English. It helps us specify which one we're talking about in a sequence.
For example, if you say 上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī), you're talking about 'last week'. Or, if you mention 上个月 (shàng ge yuè), that means 'last month'. It's a very common and practical word to know!
When talking about time in Chinese, you'll often need to refer to something that happened in the past. That's where 上个 comes in handy! It means "last" or "previous" and is used before a unit of time.
For example, if you want to say "last week," you'd say 上个星期. If you want to talk about "last month," you'd use 上个月. It's a really useful phrase for expressing when something occurred.
Just remember that it always comes before the time word.
When we want to talk about something that happened in the past, like last week or last month, we use 上个 (shàng ge). It literally means 'upper' or 'previous' and is always followed by a measure word and then the noun. For example, to say 'last month,' we say 上个月 (shàng ge yuè). To say 'last week,' we say 上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī) or 上周 (shàng zhōu). Remember, it's a fixed phrase, so don't separate 上 and 个.
When we want to say "last" in the sense of something that came before, like "last week" or "last month," the word we use is 上个 (shàng ge). This is a very common and practical word in everyday Chinese conversation. You'll hear it a lot, so it's good to get familiar with it.
It acts like a determiner, meaning it comes before the noun it's describing, similar to how "last" works in English. Think of it as pointing to the item that immediately preceded the current one in a sequence.
When we want to talk about something that happened or existed just before the present, we often use the word “last” in English. In Chinese, the most common and practical way to express this is by using 上个 (shàng ge). Think of 上 (shàng) here as meaning “previous” or “upper,” and 个 (ge) as a general measure word, combining to mean “the one before.”
It's important to remember that 上个 (shàng ge) is a determiner, which means it comes before the noun it modifies. You'll typically see it used with time-related nouns like week, month, year, or even specific days. For instance, you would say 上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī) for “last week” or 上个月 (shàng ge yuè) for “last month.”
This phrase is incredibly versatile and you'll hear it constantly in everyday conversations. Mastering its usage will significantly improve your ability to talk about past events and timeframes. Just remember the structure: 上个 (shàng ge) + [noun].
When using “上个” as a determiner, it means “last (one)” or “previous.” It’s important to remember that “上个” is specifically used to refer to time. For instance, you would use it when talking about “last week” (上个星期) or “last month” (上个月).
You can also use it to refer to a specific item in a sequence, like “the last one in the series.” However, it doesn't mean “final” in the sense of ultimate or conclusive. Its primary function is to indicate the immediately preceding unit of time or the immediately preceding item in a sequence. This makes it very useful for discussing past events or referring to something that just occurred.
上个 en 30 secondes
- 上个 means 'last' or 'previous'.
- It's used before nouns, especially for time periods.
- Think of it as 'the one before this one'.
§ What does it mean and when do people use it?
The Chinese word 上个 (shàng ge) is a super practical little phrase you'll hear and use all the time. Think of it as meaning 'last' or 'previous' when you're talking about units of time or countable items. It's a determiner, which means it sits right before the noun it's describing, telling you 'which one'.
- DEFINITION
- Last (one); previous.
So, when do you use it? Mostly, you'll find 上个 (shàng ge) paired with time words. Things like:
上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī) – last week
上个月 (shàng ge yuè) – last month
上个周末 (shàng ge zhōumò) – last weekend
上个学期 (shàng ge xuéqī) – last semester
上一年 (shàng yī nián) – last year (Note: for 'year', you often drop the '个' or use 去年 - qùnián, but 上一年 is also understandable in some contexts, though less common than 去年 for 'last year' specifically).
You'll notice a pattern: it's always '上个' + a time unit. It's very straightforward. This is how you indicate that something happened in the period immediately preceding the current one.
我上个星期去了北京。(Wǒ shàng ge xīngqī qù le Běijīng.) – I went to Beijing last week.
上个月他搬家了。( Shàng ge yuè tā bānjiā le.) – Last month he moved house.
While its primary use is with time, you can also use 上个 (shàng ge) to refer to the 'previous' or 'last' item in a sequence or a group, especially when that item is countable and somewhat abstract like a 'class' or 'chapter'. It's less common for physical objects where you might use 以前的 (yǐqián de) or just specify the exact item.
我没听懂上个问题。(Wǒ méi tīng dǒng shàng ge wèntí.) – I didn't understand the last question.
The '个 (ge)' is a very common measure word. When used with 上, it essentially acts like an all-purpose counter, making '上个' a versatile phrase to attach to many nouns that represent a unit or an item in a sequence. It tells you that you're talking about the *specific one* that came immediately before.
It's essential to get comfortable with 上个 (shàng ge) because it's a fundamental building block for discussing past events. Without it, you'd struggle to simply say 'last week' or 'last time' in a natural way. Pay attention to how native speakers use it, and try to incorporate it into your own sentences about your past activities. It's a small word, but it carries a lot of meaning in daily conversations.
§ "上个" - Last (one); previous
- DEFINITION
- The determiner "上个" (shàng ge) means 'last' or 'previous'. It's used to refer to a specific time period or item that immediately precedes the current one. Think of it like saying 'the last week' or 'the previous month' in English.
You'll hear "上个" all the time when people are talking about past events, scheduling, or making comparisons. It's a fundamental word for talking about sequence.
§ At Work
In a work setting, "上个" is very common for discussing deadlines, project status, and past meetings. It helps to clearly define which period or item you are referring to.
- Talking about work schedules:
上个星期我太忙了。
Last week I was too busy. (上个 xīngqī wǒ tài máng le.)
- Referring to previous reports or discussions:
我们应该看看上个月的报告。
We should look at last month's report. (Wǒmen yīnggāi kànkàn shàng ge yuè de bàogào.)
- Discussing project phases:
上个项目很成功。
The last project was very successful. (Shàng ge xiàngmù hěn chénggōng.)
§ At School
Students and teachers use "上个" to talk about previous classes, assignments, and academic terms. It's crucial for understanding the flow of coursework.
- Referring to previous lessons:
上个星期我们学了什么？
What did we learn last week? (Shàng ge xīngqī wǒmen xué le shénme?)
- Talking about past exams or tests:
上个考试有点难。
The last exam was a bit difficult. (Shàng ge kǎoshì yǒudiǎn nán.)
- Discussing academic terms:
上个学期我选了三门课。
Last semester I chose three courses. (Shàng ge xuéqī wǒ xuǎn le sān mén kè.)
§ In the News
News reports frequently use "上个" to provide context by referring to recent events, reports, or previous statements. It grounds the current news in recent history.
- Referring to previous news cycles:
上个月的数据显示经济增长放缓。
Last month's data showed slower economic growth. (Shàng ge yuè de shùjù xiǎnshì jīngjì zēngzhǎng fànghuǎn.)
- Quoting previous statements:
部长重申了他在上个会议上的立场。
The minister reiterated his position from the last meeting. (Bùzhǎng chóngshēn le tā zài shàng ge huìyì shang de lìchǎng.)
- Discussing trends over time:
与上个季度相比，销售额有所下降。
Compared to last quarter, sales have decreased. (Yǔ shàng ge jìdù xiāng bǐ, xiāoshòu'é yǒu suǒ xiàjiàng.)
As you can see, "上个" is a highly versatile and necessary word. Pay attention to how native speakers use it, and start incorporating it into your own conversations. You'll sound much more natural and precise when referring to past events.
§ Don't confuse it with other 'last' words
Many English speakers get tripped up because 'last' in English can mean a few different things. In Chinese, we have specific words for each nuance. 上个 (shàng ge) specifically refers to the immediately preceding one in a sequence, usually time-related. It's like 'the last X before this one'.
§ Not for 'final' or 'remaining'
A common mistake is using 上个 (shàng ge) when you mean 'the final one' or 'the remaining one'. For example, if you're talking about the last piece of cake in a box, you wouldn't use 上个 (shàng ge). That would imply there was a piece before it, and then *that* was the 'last one'.
- WRONG
- 这是上个蛋糕了。(This is the last cake.)
This is incorrect because 上个 (shàng ge) refers to the previous cake, not the final one in a series. For 'the last/final one', you'd typically use 最后一个 (zuì hòu yī gè).
- CORRECT
- 这是最后一个蛋糕了。(This is the last cake.)
§ Don't use it for 'recently'
While 上个 (shàng ge) refers to something in the past, it's not a general word for 'recently'. It specifically points to the immediately preceding unit of time or item in a sequence. If you want to say something happened recently in a more general sense, you'd use words like 最近 (zuìjìn).
- WRONG
- 我上个去了中国。(I recently went to China.)
This sentence is grammatically awkward and doesn't convey 'recently'. It would imply 'the last time I went to China was just before this one', which isn't the intended meaning.
- CORRECT
- 我最近去了中国。(I recently went to China.)
§ Common collocations and their meaning
上个 (shàng ge) combines naturally with certain time-related nouns. Here are some of the most common and what they mean:
上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī): Last week
我上个星期去了北京。(I went to Beijing last week.)
上个月 (shàng ge yuè): Last month
我上个月学了中文。(I studied Chinese last month.)
上一年 / 去年 (shàng yī nián / qù nián): Last year. Note that 去年 (qù nián) is much more common for 'last year'. While 上一年 (shàng yī nián) is technically correct, it's less frequently used in everyday speech for 'last year'.
去年我去了中国。(I went to China last year.)
上一次 (shàng yī cì): Last time (the previous instance)
上一次我们见面是什么时候？(When was the last time we met?)

Famille de mots
Noms
Comment l'utiliser
“上个” is used to refer to the immediately preceding instance of something. Think of it as “the one just before this.” It’s a versatile word that can modify nouns related to time (like weeks, months, years), events (like meetings, classes), or even abstract concepts that have a sequence. For example, “上个星期” means “last week,” and “上个月” means “last month.” You can also use it for recurring events, such as “上节课” (the last class/the previous class).
You’ll often see “上个” followed by a measure word if the noun requires one, but for common time words like 星期 (xīngqī - week) or 月 (yuè - month), it directly precedes the noun. It's a very common and practical word in everyday conversation, so mastering its use will significantly improve your fluency.
A common mistake is confusing “上个” with other words that mean “last” or “previous.”
- Don't confuse with “最后一个” (zuì hòu yī gè): “最后一个” means “the very last one” in a series, implying there are no more after it. “上个” simply means the one immediately before the current one, and there can be many “previous ones” before that. For example, if you are talking about a list of items, the “最后一个” is the final item on the list. If you are talking about a movie you just watched, “上个电影” (shàng gè diànyǐng) would be the movie you watched just before this one.
- Don't use for things that happened a long time ago: While “上个” refers to the previous instance, it generally implies a relatively recent past. For events much further in the past, you might use phrases like “以前” (yǐqián - before) or specify the time more precisely. For instance, you wouldn't say “上个皇帝” for an emperor who lived hundreds of years ago; you'd specify the dynasty or era.
- Ensure the context is clear for “previous”: While “上个” can mean “previous,” ensure the context implies a direct preceding instance. For example, “上个问题” (shàng gè wèntí) means “the previous question” (the one just before this). If you mean a general “previous issue” from a long time ago, you might use a different phrasing.
Astuces
Placement of 上个
上个 (shàng ge) is a determiner, so it always comes before the noun it modifies. Think of it like saying 'last week' or 'previous month' in English.
Common phrases with 上个
You'll most often hear 上个 used with time words. For example:
- 上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī) - last week
- 上个月 (shàng ge yuè) - last month
- 上个学期 (shàng ge xuéqī) - last semester
Don't use with 'year'
While you can say 'last week' or 'last month', you generally don't use 上个 with 'year'. For 'last year', you'd say 去年 (qùnián).
Grammatical particle 个
The 个 (ge) in 上个 is a common measure word that's often used with determiners. It doesn't really add extra meaning here, just think of 上个 as a fixed phrase meaning 'last' or 'previous'.
Contextual usage
The meaning of 上个 is usually clear from the context. If you say '上个星期', it refers to the week immediately before the current one.
Example: Last weekend
上个周末你去哪儿了？(Shàng ge zhōumò nǐ qù nǎr le?) - Where did you go last weekend?
Example: Previous meeting
我们在上个会议上讨论了这个问题。(Wǒmen zài shàng ge huìyì shàng tǎolùn le zhè ge wèntí.) - We discussed this problem at the previous meeting.
Example: Last time
这是我上个星期买的。(Zhè shì wǒ shàng ge xīngqī mǎi de.) - This is what I bought last week.
Not for 'the last one'
上个 means 'last' in the sense of 'previous'. If you want to say 'the very last one' in a sequence, you'd use something like 最后一个 (zuì hòu yí ge).
Relation to 下个
上个 (shàng ge) is the opposite of 下个 (xià ge), which means 'next'. So, 上个星期 is 'last week' and 下个星期 is 'next week'.
Mémorise-le
Moyen mnémotechnique
Think of '上' (shàng) as 'up' or 'above,' often referring to something that came 'before' or 'earlier' in a sequence, like 'up' on a timeline. '个' (ge) is a common measure word. So, 'up-previous one' or 'the one that came up before.'
Association visuelle
Imagine a calendar. Point to the current week, then point 'up' to the 'last' or 'previous' week. Visualize '上个' hovering above the current time frame.
Word Web
Défi
Try to say what you did '上个' (last) and '这个' (this) for different time periods. For example: 上个周末我看了电影。这个周末我要去公园。 (Last weekend I watched a movie. This weekend I'm going to the park.) Practice with days, weeks, and months.
Origine du mot
Composed of two characters: 上 (shàng) meaning 'up, above, last' and 个 (gè) a general measure word.
Sens originel : The character 上 originally depicted an object above a line, signifying 'above' or 'up'. Over time, it developed the meaning of 'previous' or 'last' in temporal contexts. 个 is a classifier used broadly for individual items.
Sino-Tibetan, Sinitic branch.Contexte culturel
<p>In Chinese, expressing 'last' or 'previous' often involves the character 上 (shàng). It's commonly used in everyday conversation to refer to time periods, like 'last week' (上个星期) or 'last month' (上个月). Understanding this usage is key to talking about past events and scheduling in Chinese.</p>
Questions fréquentes
10 questionsBoth mean 'last' or 'previous', but they are used in different contexts. 上个 (shàng ge) is a determiner, meaning it comes before a noun to modify it. For example, 上个月 (shàng ge yuè) means 'last month', and 上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī) means 'last week'. It refers to the previous unit of time or the previous item in a series.
上次 (shàng cì) means 'last time' and is a noun phrase itself. It refers specifically to the previous occasion or instance. For example, 上次我见到你 (shàng cì wǒ jiàndào nǐ) means 'last time I saw you'. You wouldn't say '上个我见到你'.
Yes, you can! 上个 (shàng ge) can be used with many time-related nouns. So, 上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī) is 'last week', 上个月 (shàng ge yuè) is 'last month', and 上个学期 (shàng ge xuéqī) is 'last semester'. For 'last year', you'd typically say 去年 (qùnián), which is a more common and direct way to say it, but 上个年 (shàng ge nián) isn't used. However, you can say 上个春节 (shàng ge chūnjié) for 'last Spring Festival' or 上个生日 (shàng ge shēngrì) for 'last birthday'.
That's a good question! While 个 (ge) is a very common measure word and often pairs with 上 (shàng) to form 上个 (shàng ge), the measure word can change depending on the noun it modifies. However, in the context of 'last' or 'previous' when referring to time or items in a series, 上个 (shàng ge) is very common. For example, you say 上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī) (last week) and 上个月 (shàng ge yuè) (last month).
For other nouns that take different measure words, you would use 上 (shàng) directly with that measure word. For example, if you wanted to say 'the previous book', you'd say 上一本书 (shàng yī běn shū) (lit. 'the one book before'). But for general time periods like week or month, 上个 (shàng ge) is the standard.
You don't use 上个 (shàng ge) for 'the day before yesterday'. The standard way to say 'the day before yesterday' is 前天 (qiántiān). 上个 (shàng ge) is used for a broader 'last' or 'previous' period, like 'last week' or 'last month', not for specific days directly preceding today.
Yes, it can! While it's very common with time, 上个 (shàng ge) can also refer to the previous item in a sequence or series. For example:
上个学生 (shàng ge xuésheng) – The previous student.
上个问题 (shàng ge wèntí) – The previous question.
So, if you're talking about 'the last person in line' in the sense of the person who was there before the current one, you could use it. However, if you mean the very end of the line, you'd use something like 队伍最后一个人 (duìwu zuìhòu de yī ge rén).
Let's make this super clear. 上个 (shàng ge) is a determiner, it acts like an adjective to describe a noun. Think of it as 'the previous [noun]'. Examples: 上个星期 (shàng ge xīngqī) - last week, 上个月 (shàng ge yuè) - last month.
上次 (shàng cì) is a noun phrase itself, meaning 'the last time' or 'the previous occasion'. It acts like a noun. Examples: 上次我去北京 (shàng cì wǒ qù Běijīng) - Last time I went to Beijing. 上次我们见面 (shàng cì wǒmen jiànmiàn) - Last time we met.
It's pretty straightforward. Just put 上个 (shàng ge) directly before the noun it modifies. Here are some examples:
我上个星期去了北京。 (Wǒ shàng ge xīngqī qù le Běijīng.) - I went to Beijing last week.
他上个月很忙。 (Tā shàng ge yuè hěn máng.) - He was very busy last month.
上个周末我们一起吃饭了。 (Shàng ge zhōumò wǒmen yīqǐ chīfàn le.) - We ate together last weekend.
上个问题你答对了。 (Shàng ge wèntí nǐ dáduì le.) - You answered the previous question correctly.
No, you cannot. 上个 (shàng ge) specifically refers to 'last' or 'previous'. To talk about 'next' or 'future' events, you would use 下个 (xià ge). For example, 下个星期 (xià ge xīngqī) means 'next week', and 下个月 (xià ge yuè) means 'next month'.
上个 (shàng ge) is very common and completely neutral in terms of formality. You can use it in everyday conversations, in business settings, and in writing. It's a fundamental part of expressing 'last' or 'previous' in Chinese, so feel free to use it widely.
Yes, one common mistake is confusing it with 上次 (shàng cì), as we discussed. Remember, 上个 (shàng ge) modifies a noun (e.g., last week), while 上次 (shàng cì) is a noun phrase itself (e.g., last time).
Another potential mistake is trying to use it for 'yesterday' (昨天 - zuótiān) or 'the day before yesterday' (前天 - qiántiān), where specific words already exist. Stick to 上个 (shàng ge) for periods like weeks, months, or items in a sequence.
