Wizard’s Wisdom: Measure Words in Chinese
In Chinese, when counting objects, you must use a specific ‘measure word’ or ‘classifier’. For example, for counting people, you use the measure word 个 (gè). So, instead of saying ‘two shirts’, you would say 两件衬衫 (liǎng jiàn chènshān), where 件 (jiàn) is the measure word for shirts.
