得

de

structural particle: used after a verb (or adjective as main verb), linking it to following phrase indicating effect, degree, possibility etc

得 — the verb-to-complement bridge particle

Originally meaning 'to obtain,' 得 was extended to show what a verb obtains as its outcome — the degree or result that follows. Now it acts as a bridge between the verb and its complement, as in 跑得快, where 得 links 'run' to 'fast.'
