Completion or result, xia4 or da4o?
Can anyone give me examples (also in English, or pinyin) of the difference between xia4 and da4o, as a complement of result?Ok, let's say I've been at anightclub, drank too much, and started losing my thigs (wallet, purse etc). The following day I say to a friend: "sui1ra2n wo3 ta4i he1 le,
1. da4nshi4 zha3o da4o wo3de qia4nba1o
2. da4nshi4 zha3o xia4 wo3de qia4nba1o.
What's the difference between 1 and 2?

I suggest that you learn characters first, then their "pin yin". When another Chinese guy sends me a message just in "pin yin" suddenly, if I don't know the background environment, I can hardly know what he tells about.
So, could you explain the question more clear? It's better to describe the talking environment in English, if you find it is hard to write Chinese characters and only can write "pin yin".

hmmm
i would love to answer but. it seems your question is lead to puzzle.
completion of result of xia4 and dao4
with the sounds of xia4 and dao4 itself. it could lead to many meaning
Ex: 下(down），夏（summer,building.)，嚇(be frighten) etc etc ， itz all read xia4
also 到(reach,get)，道(way, road)，盜bandit， etc itz all read as dao4
so would be great if you be more specific the meaning which one you wish to know.

What? I think you're over-complicating everything here. I presume you mean 下
and 到. But the "compliment of result" is way too abstract. It would be nice if you could give us some idea of what you wish to know.
