Abstract: Adhering to the concept of taking common grammatical phenomena as the research object,the analysis of this paper about the Malaysian Chinese “被(Bei)” construction is different from previous studies from the two perspectives of realis and irrealis.Based on this,the paper discusses three basic principles of Chinese grammar research:the principle of balance,the principle of universality and the principle of sufficiency.Also,the paper proposes three key points for the further research:to carry out research on common grammatical phenomena,to lay equal stress on both explicit and implicit differences,especially to focus on the exploration of the latter,and to focus on the internal comparative study of Huayu grammar.

Key words: Malaysian Huayu, grammar, “被(Bei)”construction
