Comment:
Alternatively one can
say
酒喝完了
jiŭ hē wán le.
完
wán
finished
refers to酒
jiŭ the
wine, but not the action
喝
hē
to drink.
The difference
between
把酒喝完了and
喝完酒了
is
that the word
完
wán
finished
refers to the object
酒
wine
in
the first sentence, and it refers to the action
喝
to drink
in the second sentence.
