Chinese Measure Words
In the Chinese language, simple numerals cannot quantify an object by itself. Measure words, also known as classifiers, are used along with numerals to define the quantity of an object. There are two types of measure words, nominal and verbal, with the latter being used to quantify verbs and the number of times they occur. This table provides a complete list of Chinese measure words used in modern Chinese. Click the Pinyin to hear the pronunciation of the measure word.
