klortho Posted December 22, 2005 at 03:20 AM Report Posted December 22, 2005 at 03:20 AM So far, I've come across four that I can think of: 个 - most common 口 - when talking about members of your family 位 - when being polite 名 - when the noun is a type of occupation (is this right?) Can anybody add to this list? Quote
