How to express [Adjective + enough] or [Adverb + enough]

Question

I've looked online for this but I haven't really found what I'm looking for.

It may be that there is no one formula to express "X enough", but I also wouldn't be surprised if there is.

adjectives:

• They weren't good enough to win.

• He wasn't fast enough to escape.

• I was strong enough to open the bottle.

adverbs:

• She sang well enough to be hired.

• We couldn't solve the problem quickly enough.

• He talked loudly enough to be heard in the next room.

Answer 1

The basic structures:

[adjective + enough] = [夠 + adjective]

[adverb + enough] = [夠+ adverb]

adjectives:

• Good enough = 夠好; Not good enough = 不夠好
• Fast enough = 夠快; Not fast enough = 不夠快
• Strong enough = 夠力; Not strong enough = 不夠力

adverb:

• Well enough = 夠好; Not well enough = 不夠好
• Quickly enough =夠快; Not Quickly enough = 不夠快
• Loudly enough = 夠大聲; Not loudly enough = 不夠大聲

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When the sentence included a verb:

• She sang well enough. = 她唱得夠好

• Couldn't solve quickly enough. = 解得不夠快

• He talked loudly enough. = 他說得夠大聲

*compare to the basic structure, in a sentence that included a verb, a potential particle like 得 have to be placed after the verb to connect to the adjective or adverb. (得 - to the degree of)

*If the sentences included passive verb like "sang...to be hired / talked...to be heard in the next room " , the structure would become more complicated, different type of particles could be used. That would be too broad to answer

Answer 2

够好 or 足够 could be used.

他们做得不够好，赢不了。
