<< review queue entry 76789 - submitted by 'ivanktw3' >> Common in retail to specify pieces inside packaging, num (+ measure) + 入 10入/10枚入: ten pieces inside 10罐入: 10 cans included (e.g. beer) 10元/入: 10 ntd/piece Probably just TW? Due to Japanese origins, esp. 枚入 is for pieces generically, used even when Chinese would not use 枚. [Comment added later]: I've found this interesting journal article on 枚 and 枚入 in particular https://www.researchgate.net/publication/342343661_Little_cutie_one_piece_An_innovative_human_classifier_and_its_social_indexicality_in_Chinese_digital_culture https://research.utu.fi/converis/getfile?id=174633912&portal=true&v=1 First mention (among many): "Mai is worth noting because of its infiltration into Chinese e-commerce. Specifically, the sinicized formulaic construction [NUM 枚入 méi rù] ‘NUM pack’ (e.g. 五枚入 ‘five pack’) serves as a salient product packaging and branding tool that, as our study will show, impresses the Chinese consumer with a modern, chic, and exotic flair along with an expectation of high quality." So like I suspected in a previous comment, this is a japanism used by chinese to inflate product status. Article mentions Taobao and JD, so not limited to TW. How about the following definition: "pieces inside packaging; quantity included (loan phrase from Japanese for small flat pieces, now also borrowed into Chinese for objects not normally measured in Chinese by 枚[mei2], often used by commercial sellers looking for an inflated quality impression or exotic chic)" ------------------------------- Editor: Usage of 枚 as a classifier ~ 送給對方一枚金戒子。 員工人數近5,000人，日產25萬枚鏡片 拿一枚兩棲蛙人徽章 國際政治一向是大國之間的博弈，弱國就像被擺布的一枚棋子。 刻印三千多枚。 carved more than 3000 seals. 在其上外掛了3萬5,861枚鑄鋁圓盤，studded with 35,861 aluminum disks 三片花萼、三枚花瓣，Just three calyxes, three petals, 再向觀眾要來一枚50元硬幣， 兩方圖章，一枚陰、一枚陽，two seals, one cut in intaglio and the other in relief, 花瓣五枚， 看看自己巢裡十枚左右的蛋 並蒐集現場指紋，幸運地在丟棄的旅行袋上發現三枚。 were also lucky enough to find three fingerprints on the travel bag. 後來警方在冰箱的手把上找到一枚指紋， 一枚雞蛋 學生若表現不佳時就發給他一枚「哭臉代幣」。 把他送的生日禮物一枚戒指弄丟了 可以存放近五千枚指紋， 全球第一枚DNA防偽生物晶片 佛牙舍利有四枚，而佛指舍利現世僅存一枚，彌足珍貴。searched through his ashes and found four teeth and some finger bones. 為全球出版業投下一枚震撼彈； 以每天一枚傳統飛彈 發展高軌道同步衛星一枚 只發展兩枚低軌道衛星 刺針式低層防空飛彈465枚 一枚能量極高的炸彈 三百枚彈道飛彈 試射六枚M族導彈 |
