    Very interesting! I sort of knew that certain verbs used location compliments, but I never heard the distinction between " location before" verbs and "location after" verbs explained explicitly.

    Really informative! Can you link the word order video? I can't seem to find it.

    4.42 you said it CAN be put at the back. Does this mean it can ALSO be put on the front or did you mean MUST be put at the back.

      Great question. The answer is "can," not "must." Location can always go in the standard "location phrase" spot before the verb, even with one of those verbs mentioned in the video. In what situations would you do that? One example would be when the verb takes an object, for example: zài hóumian tíng chē 在后面停车 (Park the car in the back). It's a bit more complicated than that, but hope this helps.
