For example, this construction, the dative, is used not only to transfer things, but also for the metaphorical transfer of ideas, as when we say, "She told a story to me" or "told me a story," "Max taught Spanish to the students" or "taught the students Spanish."
就拿与格来说， 不仅用来转移事物， 还用来比喻思想的转移， 比如，"She told a story to me" 或者"told me a story" "Max taught Spanish to the student"或者"taught the students Spanish."
