HSK 1 Numbers & measure words
一 二 三 … 十
Numbers (and 两 vs 二)
Structure 十 = 10 · 二十 = 20 · 二十一 = 21
One to ten: 一 二 三 四 五 六 七 八 九 十. After that you combine them: 十一 (11), 二十 (20), 二十一 (21), 一百 (100). Zero is 零. There are TWO words for "two": 二 (èr) is the digit (when counting, in 二十, in dates) and 两 (liǎng) is "two of something", used before a measure word: 两个人 (two people), not 二个人.
Examples
- 我有三本书。
I have three books.
- 现在两点。
It’s two o’clock.
- 他二十岁。
He is twenty.
Levels are indicative: they follow the standard Chinese Grammar Wiki (AllSet Learning) progression, not an official HSK 3.0 mapping. We never assign levels by eye.
