As promised earlier, today we will look at two more measure words in Chinese language, 张 (zhāng) and 条 (tiáo) in more detail. So here we go:
张 (zhāng)
张 (zhāng) is a measure word most commonly used for objects with flat surfaces. Few examples:
一张纸 (yī zhāng zhǐ): a piece of paper
一张桌子 (yī zhāng zhuōzi): a table
一张床 (yī zhāng chuáng): a bed
张 (zhāng) can also be used with objects that can be opened and closed:
一张嘴 (yī zhāng zuǐ): a mouth
一张弓 (yī zhāng gōng): a bow
条 (tiáo)
条 (tiáo) is a measure word most commonly used for elongated objects. Few examples:
两条腿 (liǎng tiáo tuǐ): two legs
一条路 (yī tiáo lù): a road
一条河 (yī tiáo hé): a river
条 (tiáo) is also used to quantify some animals
两条鱼 (liǎng tiáo yú): a fish
一条蛇 (yī tiáo shé): a snake
