This paper focuses on the perfective as a general and basic property of Chinese complements. The majority of the studies on the aspective feature of Chinese complements has been concentrated on some partial complements which represent the aspective function from their lexical meaning. This study will argue that the perfective is intrinsic in Chinese complements. Chinese complement structures are combined predicate constructions such as 'P1+P2', and this fact shows that these two predicates are organic, and thus, the perfective of complements can be derived from the organic function implicated in the combined predicates. In this paper, it is suggested that several features such as iconicity, the change from syntactic structure to morphology, and resultative property are regarded as the phenomena of the perfective of Chinese complements. In addition, it shows that the perfective is the feature not for some partial complements but for the whole complements based on the analysis of every separate complement. It will also be suggested that it's very useful in understanding and using the Chinese complements to consider that the perfective is a general and basic feature of the whole Chinese complements. Futhermore, we can clarify the similar meanings of different structures.
