It seems to make no difference in either E or C whether "enough" qualifies （predicative） adjectives or adverbs.  Was OP unable to find suitable translation among 100 examples at jukuu?

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

(Asked by: username_0 on 2016-08-18)

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.

**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; **No**t 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
